On Sunday the Phillies will honor Ryan Howard for his 13 years as a Philadelphia Phillie. One of the biggest cogs to the Phillies championship run, Ryan Howard was just as crucial to the Phillies success as any other member of the organization.
The specifics of the ceremony are being held extremely close to the vest, leaving speculation to what the Phillies have planned.
Earlier this week I guessed they’d present him with several gifts and have former teammates on hand to congratulate him on a remarkable career in Philadelphia.
Mike Schmidt will be in the house to broadcast the game, so it’s entirely plausible that the only Phillie to have more home runs than him will make an appearance.
