phillies help ground crew with tarp

[hiresrootbeer1876]

Were the Rookies players in the clubhouse having a Coors while this was happening?

[neetrab]

Thanks for posting! See, now HOW can anybody hate these guys??? Philly gets a bad rap for a lot of things, but there are a FEW diamonds in the rough...

@iprfr2flopMyNutz - I was saying the same thing... everybody remembers Philly for anything bad but can't recall anything good our team/players/etc has done...

[hdtvoice]

about the only thing Adam Eaton did that helped that year..... what a bum

[Iprfr2flopMyNutz]

EVERYONE can (and does) recount Santa Clause being hit by snowballs 3 decades ago, but almost no one knows this story.  It doesn't play into ESPN's narrative, I guess

[MB73191]

Bravo for helping out Rockies!

Even the umps helped out!!

[allstar61997]

Shows how careing the Phillies are

[strlightcutie521]

This is so darn classy! I really wish this mentality was still around in all pro sports.

[frobrofityfoe]

too bad they will never win the world series with the rotation they have. Texas Rangers bitch.

[devenking]

@frobrofityfoe -- good luck with that. You mad? Yea, you mad.

[TheDoorknob1]

I'm not a fan of either team, but that was great.

[rachelismyhero231]

one of the millions of reasons i absolutley live the phillies-3

[steph842]

This is the true face of Philly, not the stuff you hear about in the news.

[DustBunnyBill]

One of the thousands of reasons to love the game.

[bravesman218]

wow I'm a Braves fan and I hate the Phillies but this is very classy. I respect that

[slayerace13]

THATS A REAL BASEBALL TEAM]

[utleysgirl2608]

this just makes me even more proud to be a phillies fan!!! GO PHILLIES!!

[arf900]

@utleysgirl2608 brotherly love. And this was on the road. The home team wanted nothing to do with it. Although you cant blame the players the other teams coach was probably just worried about injury.

[EyeHeartMAC]

Now that's class. You'd never see any of the Yankees do that. God forbid they break a nail.

[NakedWombat666]

EyeHeartMAC - LOL well said mate. Very true. Helpin with the tarp might prevent the Yanks from shootin more steroids, too. Philly ROCKS.

[philliesphan08]

haha that is so true!! things like this really make me proud to be a phillies fan!

[96xohels]

gotta love the Phillies where exactly were the Rockies during this I heard only one came out my dad told me Shane Victorino was the first one out

[hothotheat3000]

CLASSY CLASSY CLASSY.

[billybfrom303]

The Phillies demonstrated the same good will that the Rockies would have had the shoe been on the other foot. The Rox got into their clubhouse before they saw this disaster-don't B.S. me otherwise.

[mgimbel77]

The Rockies were sitting in the dugout watching. Anyone who says they wernt there are lieing.  One Rocky came out and I am sorry to say I don't remember who it was.

[WaltzingMtilda]

This moment STILL makes me so proud. This is what Philly is really all about.

[ahandsumguy]

@WaltzingMtilda I thought Philly was about throwing batteries at players and snowballs at Santa Claus ... Oh wait, that's just the fans.

[IAMCK74]

@ahandsumguy bet you wouldnt have the balls to say that to a Philadelphian.asshole

[ahandsumguy]

@IAMCK74

I sure would, I am from Philly! I love the teams here, but there are a lot of a-holes in the stands. And I wouldn't hesitate to tell a single one of them to their face because I'm tried of them giving the city a bad reputation.

[countrychick3211]

good ol' phillies <3

[estein618]

It's things like this that make me proud to be a Phillies fan.

[RockiesFan2222]

All you phillies out there all recieve an official colorado rockies thank you! You guys rock! good luck in 09

[Hlevitt]

phiilies are just soooo cooooooool!!

[xbeatlex]

How can you look at this and not at least like the Phills? haha

[lmc3200]

Phillies rock except the Rays deserved the title.

[eaglesgirl85]

If the Rays deserved it, they would have won.

[Mackie1355]

damn stright

[DeathWithoutIPod]

phils rock!

[guineapigmadness]

phils are 39 and 26!

[CSXkid22]

Mets suck, they get all these good players but theres no chemistry, GO PHILLIES! Where were the rockies wen this happened? Only one came out!

[RockiesFan2222]

they were in their clubhouse putting on their uniforms

[CSXkid22]

why would they be putting their uniforms on during a rain delay? Wouldn't they already be on?

[RockiesFan2222]

well i remember that day and it wasnt raining earlyer but it was kinda windy and i guess no one told the rockies

[BreathofFire42]

i love these boys :)

[ariella52504]

wow.....
