Anybody see Phillies pregame?

Pretty Cool!!!
They presented Roy Haliday With a ring for perfect game. They also gave his wife a pendant type of thing with diamonds and rubys. They gave his 2 sons bronze glove with a hand and game ball in it. Then gave Catcher Ruiz the home plate in a case and a diamond ring saying 'we did it together' or something like that.
Totally a class act by the phillies. They probably spent more money on this than some other teams wouldn't even think about.
I guess they want Haliday to stay for a while!!!

anything to get the fans' minds off of what could be a 4 game losing streak at home to the lowly astros

I was thinking the position players probably got something but haven't heard that before.

He should have bought them fu**ing batting lessons....somebody to give them a few tips on base running would be nice as well....bunch of 12 year olds in williamsport who could probably give them a few pointers

Thats pretty damn good of them to do that, I dont think any organization has gone to those lengths for a perfect game/no hitter.
