With Spring Training starting next week, there will be baseball from now until the end of October, when the Phillies will parade down Broad Street for the 2nd time in 3 years as World Fucking Champions.
A few tidbits to bring to you:
-The Phillies equipment truck left Citizens Bank Park yesterday, loaded with all the equipment needed for Spring Training, and should get to Clearwater shortly. As Todd Zolecki noted
The team loaded 15 cases of gum, 12 cases of sunflower seeds, 20 coolers, a palette worth of drink mix, 300 batting helmets, 350 pairs of shorts, 450 pairs of socks, 600 pairs of pants, 600 hats, 200 fleeces, 1,200 bats, 2,000 T-shirts, 10,000 cups, 15,000 baseballs and 150 pairs of batting gloves.
The Phillies also posted a video of the truck leaving CBP on it’s way to Florida to the Twitters. What I want to know is where is the Phillies’ customized truck for going to Spring Training? Hell, even the lowly Pirates have their own truck.
- Roy Halladay also made the cover of the latest Sporting News magazine.
Roy sure does look good in red pinstripes…
Not much else to throw in there. Just wanted to get out a Phillies post after a few off days from work.
With five days to go until pitchers not name Roy Halladay and catchers report, baseball will be back again soon. It’s about time.
