Five top moments from Chase Utley's career with the Phillies

As the workman-like second baseman departs for Los Angeles, here are a few moments from Chase Utley's time with the Philadelphia Phillies; memories indelibly marked on the Philadelphia fans' soul.

  1. The grand slam. Can a major league career begin with any better moment? In 2003, at the iconic Veterans Stadium Utley stepped to the plate for the third time in his first game with the bases loaded and promptly plopped the ball down in the bullpen. "A salami for Chase Utley," Harry Kalas said.
  2. This one makes any list. It was the seventh inning against Atlanta, 5-3, Utley on second after a bases clearing double to take the lead.
