Tony Gwynn Jr. returned to the Phillies last night after his father passed away last week. As he walked toward the plate for his eighth inning at-bat, those boorish and rude Philly fans welcomed him back the only way they knew how.
Massive props to catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia and umpire David Rackley for giving Gwynn an extra few moments to take it all in.
