It is hard to picture how that is home plate.

That is a pretty sweet deal you get to walk on the field. I got to do that once with Phillies Baseball camp when I was a kid. Of course then it was the tobacco stained turf of the Vet.

Posting from HK memorial...Bill Giles and David Montgomery were personally greeting everybody walking in at 3rd base gate. Absolute class move.

Harry the K's wake

Just got back from Citizens Bank Park for Harry the K's wake and have to give the Phillies' Organization credit. From the memorial programs, free coffee N snacks, to being greeted Dave Montgomery & Bill Giles at the gate and everything else. Class Acts all around. That's the way honor the passing of a legend. Miss you Harry!

Phils get an A+ for how they've handled the situation.
I know what you're asking yourself and the answer is yes. I have a nick name for my penis. Its called the Octagon, but I also nick named my testes - my left one is James Westfall and my right one is Doctor Kenneth Noisewater.

At the memorial now, and everyone has come to the realization that we showed up way too early...
