Phillies decide not to hold postseason rally

The Phillies have decided not to hold a rally. Instead, they're planning festivities around Wednesday's playoff opener.

The Phillies just sent out a release noting that out of respect to and in memory of Philadelphia Police Officer Patrick McDonald, who was killed last Tuesday, and in light of his viewing tomorrow night and his funeral on Tuesday, they have chosen not to have a Center City rally as they had done last year.

Instead, fans Wednesday are invited to attend a rally that will kick off October Phest which will begin three hours before to the game.  The event will take place on Citizens Bank Way, located on the west side of Citizens Bank Park.  Further information on Wednesday's celebration will be released in the next 2 days.
