PHILADELPHIA (CBS) – It was quite the end of the school year surprise for some young Phillies fans at St. Laurentius School in Fishtown. Phillies first baseman Rhys Hoskins made a surprise visit along with a little Phillies swag.
Only the Phillie Phanatic can stir up this kind of electrifying energy among children. Well, maybe one of the Phillies’ players can as well.
Students at St. Laurentius School got the surprise of their little lives on Monday when Hoskins popped in during a morning assembly.
Nine-year-old L.J. McKnight and his 6-year-old twin siblings Keegan and Quinn McKnight brought their favorite player to school with them for an end-of-the-year celebration.
