Obscure Phillies Highlights (Vol. 4)

[@AWESOME1509]

Ryan Howard just might be one of the most underappreciated players in Philly sports history. The guy was an absolute unit.

[@AB-jz1li]

Come on man I’m a Phillies fan and the guy was not underrated... He performed like 2-3 great years 40-50+ HR 4.0 Avg WAR... But once he finally got into the money he ended up being overpaid... Jim Thome was about 15 years older and from 2006-2012 Howards stats were about even with Thome but Howard played more games when Thome was firmly a DH... Dont over think the couple years he had... I love Ryan Howard.. I loved him when he played... I loved that the Phillies were able to move into another power hitting 1st Baseman... But I expected so much more

Ryan Howard opposite field home runs were just things of beauty man

Ryan Howard hitting bombs in Stadiums that don't even host baseball anymore.

Gotta love Harry K with the call on Victorino's walkoff...

Had to come back to watch some of these during the Phils sudden resurgence into 1st place in the East. I was a season ticket holder from 2000-2015 and i was at the first exhibition game at CBP. In Jim Thome's first at-bat he blasted a majestic bomb into the upper deck in Right field off Jeff D'Amico and the place went absolutely crazy. It wasn't exactly a friendly hitters day since it was late March with a nice stiff wind and cold air. That is about the only thing i remember from that day

Wish we had some 2004-2005 highlights! Nice work!

[@straycatttt]

Interesting to see the empty CBP outfield seats for the first Phillies homers by Thome circa 2002 in comparison with the annual CBP sellouts beginning 5 years later.

3 years late but that is not CBP.

[@straycatttt2766]

@@rile_up, thanks for the correction. I had in my head the news story of Thome meeting with construction workers building CBP. I jumped to the mistaken conclusion that his first Phillies season was at CBP. Watching the video again, it’s clearly the Vet.
