A Phillie now
Journal News (White Plains, NY), March 25, 1978
In retrospect, it's sad to see how jubilant Bud Harrelson is in this photo as he packs his bags to leave the Mets after having been traded to Philadelphia. But the Mets were going nowhere and the Phillies, in 1978, were the powerhouse team in the division. And as we now know, Bud's association with the Mets is still far from over.
