On this very hot Thursday, fans in South Philadelphia will have to wear masks when indoors at Citizens Bank Park and Lincoln Financial Field. Philadelphia issued a new mask requirement that includes masks while indoors at all locations unless proof of vaccination is required.

Fans at the Phillies and Eagles games on Thursday will have to wear masks while in elevators, restrooms, and the team stores.

It’s a scorcher across the region Thursday and Phillies fans were trying to keep cool and hydrated as they hope for a win to avoid being swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers.
