“One of the greatest to ever wear a Phillies uniform.”

Later, Eagles head coach Doug Pederson brought the Lombardi trophy out to the field, walked up to the third base line, and took off his jacket to reveal a Halladay jersey.
The ceremonial first pitch went right down the middle:
What a moment.

“Doug Pederson can do no wrong.”
