Hey, remember when everyone wrote off Chase Utley’s career just a month ago after a disastrous start? Well! do I have some news for you– Chasey is hitting .306 with 2 doubles, 2 triples, 3 home runs, 13 RBIs and 3 stolen bases in 74 plate appearances in May. More: he’s been walked 8 times and hit by 2 pitches. His .333 batting average, .423 on-base percentage, and 1.029 OPS would be leading all Phillies hitters for the month.

He did it again last night, with a single, double, triple and hit by pitch:

I’d call it hittin’ season, if that phrase didn’t bring a tear to my eye. Miss you, Chase. And love you, too.
