Here's Every Chase Utley Video You Need to Work Yourself Into Hot Sobbing Mess Tonight
When Chase Utley returns to Citizens Bank Park tonight, it’ll be an emotional time for not only Utley but also all the fans in attendance and those watching at home. Tears will flow, beers will be drank to deal with the emotions, and the standing O will be long.
