Coming May 26 is a must have DVD release for all Phillies fans. Phillies Memories: The Greatest Moments in Philadelphia Phillies History, a compilation of great Phillies history will sit nicely next to the 2008 World Series collector’s set, or The Perfect Season.

Below is the product description from Amazon.com;

From the very first pitch thrown in 1883 to the final slider uncorked by Brad Lidge to clinch the 2008 World Series, the Philadelphia Phillies have for 126 years both frustrated and delighted their fans. Six pennants, two titles and countless what ifs have transpired in parks from Recreation to Shibe to Citizens Bank. Unforgettable names have been etched in red and white Whitey, Schmidty, Lefty, Dutch and Chase. Glorious home runs, unexpected no-hitters, dramatic comebacks and wait til next years have made up the mosaic of this team. Yet through it all, the most passionate and loyal fans in baseball have never stopped caring. It is all here from the painstaking years to the unforgettable parades down Broad Street. Through archival footage, exclusive interviews and behind-the-scenes footage and sound, this is, indeed, the definitive history of Philadelphia baseball.

Here are some bonus features on the DVD courtesy of Amazon;

• “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” by Jimmy Rollins and Ryan Howard
