Those of you that know me, know that family is everything to me. Baseball is one of the ways that I keep my family and my father's memory alive. My Dad and I used to play baseball everyday after he got off of work. When I say everyday...I mean everyday, I was so blessed to be his son.  He made me a phillies fan from birth and when they won the World Series in 2008, I know he was smiling and running around heaven! It was one of the most beautiful bittersweet moments of my life! To see my team win but not be able to hug the man that raised me. My team has had a tuff time the last few years but they are back and signed the great bryceharper3 who I am lucky to call a friend, who gave me the sickest bat ever lol! A leader and warrior jarrieta49,  a home grown talent rhystothehoskins and a character and sparkplug odubel_herrera not to mention the rest of the incredible players that make up a team that a fighting city like Philadelphia can be proud of. Philly is electric right now! Congratulations to the entire orginazation, staff and ownership lead by the Middelton family johnpowersmiddleton who have built a winning team that has started the season strong! Win or lose I love my team and my city! To my other mlb friend's and my california.strong team lead by #ryanbraun christianyelich moosetacos8 giancarlo818 here's to a healthy and productive season! Oh if you look at all the pics you will sée I used to have game lol! #dad #philly #mlb #baseball #americaspasttime #friends #family #phillyphanatic #ringthebell ⚾ 🔔 🇺🇸
