Aaron Rowand’s tenue in Phillies pinstripes only lasted two seasons, but 14 years ago today he laid it all out on the diamond for the city of Philadelphia and it’s something that will never be forgotten.
Its the top of the first inning on May 11, 2006, with Rowand playing center field and every base is occupied. Xavier Nady gets ahold of a Gavin Floyd fastball that looks like it could clear the fence at Citizens Bank Park. Rowand would proceed to make one of the greatest catches, not only Phillies history, but all of baseball.
Without a doubt one of the most electric regular season moments at the Bank.
