Reading Phillies All-Decade Team
Vote for the best R-Phils to
play for Reading from 2000 to 2009
(Reading, PA) – 2006 National League MVP Ryan Howard, 2008 World Series MVP Cole Hamels, and 2009 Gold Glove award-winner Michael Bourn headline the candidates for the R-Phils All-Decade Team, a weekly list which fans will be able to vote on at the team’s website, as announced by the Reading Phillies earlier today.
Continuing each Monday, for a total of eight straight weeks, fans can vote for their favorite R-Phils from the past decade – and the final team, which will be announced on
www.ReadingPhillies.com later in 2010, will be featured in a 2010 photo and t-shirt giveaway at FirstEnergy Stadium during the upcoming 2010 season. Every Monday, a new group of players, categorized by position, will be announced.
“Over the past ten seasons, fans at FirstEnergy Stadium have been treated to great performances from some of today’s superstars of baseball,” said R-Phils GM Scott Hunsicker. “Many of these players have gone on to have successful careers in the Majors, but one thing is for certain, they all have left a mark on Reading Phillies history.”
Fans will have the opportunity to pick from the best players of the past decade by watching videos of that player during his time in Reading on
www.ReadingPhillies.com. The videos consist of highlights from that player’s time in an R-Phils uniform during the past ten seasons.
