"THE BATTER" A SCULPTURE AT VETERANS STADIUM by JOSEPH BROWN (OCTOBER, 24,2003)

As Citizens' Bank Ball Park was being constructed, the juxtaposition of this bronze
sculpture outside Veterans Stadium, seems to link the  past with the future. The
"Batter" was one of four sculptures at Veterans Stadium created by 
Joseph Brown
, a professor of sculpture at Princeton University. Brown,
a graduate of South Philadelphia High School, was also a member of the
Philadelphia Art Commission from 1972-1984.
