- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This is a book in my son's favorite "Ballpark Mystery Series." Set at the Philadelphia Phillies ballpark, it's a mystery that involves the Philly Phanatic and an evil Ben Franklin. Lots of fun Philly "Spirit of '76" activities mixed in with baseball and mystery solving.
