A Phillies rumor involving Manny Machado hasn’t been rare the last two years with fans and executives alike waiting for this day to come. The superstar free agent visited Philadelphia as part three of his free agent tour, which was precluded by a trip to Chicago and New York.
Machado was at Citizens Bank Park for about four hours touring the ballpark and meeting with executives and coaches. He was greeted by an electrical worker, reminiscent to when Jim Thome made his famous visit more than a decade ago.
Similar to when Patrick Corbin visited Philadelphia the team welcomed him to the ballpark with his picture and name on Phanavision.
