October 23 is a day that will forever be special for all Philadelphia Phillies fans.
Last season, it was the day they clinched the NL Pennant for the first time since 2009.
They hope to do the same thing this year on the same day.
The Phillies host the Arizona Diamondbacks on Monday night with a chance to clinch another World Series appearance.
It is hard for them not to like their chances while playing at home.
UK Phillies took us back to last season when Bryce Harper had one of the most memorable hits in Phillies history.

Trailing by one run in the bottom of the eighth inning, Harper stepped up to the plate and hit what ended up being the game-winning home run.
It was a storybook moment for Harper in his first postseason as a Phillie.
Now, he is hoping to make more memories on Monday.
It will be Aaron Nola facing off against Merrill Kelly in Game 6.
This is a rematch of the pitching matchup in Game 2.
Nola and the Phillies were able to win that game at home.
The Phillies have been unbeatable at home in the postseason.
Citizens Bank Park is one of the best playoff atmospheres in all of sports.
A win tonight would give the Phillies a 7-0 record at home this postseason.
They would also be the first team since the 2017 and 2018 Los Angeles Dodgers to win back-to-back pennants.
October 23 is a special date in Phillies history and one that can add even more meaning with a win on Monday.
