Since my original discovery of a brand on Ryan Howard’s left arm over a year ago, I’ve been scouring various photo galleries for a a cleaner, full brand shot. Considering every photo I ever saw of the brand has been from Spring Training and partially obscured by his jersey, I wasn’t really expecting to get a pic during the regular season. But then, during the pre-game portion of last night’s telecast, the Comcast cameras caught Howard walking into the clubhouse wearing a throwback Dr. J All-Star jersey, exposing the brand for all to see.
Just as I suspected, the brand is in honor of his Southwest Missouri State fraternity, Phi Beta Sigma (ΦΒΣ). Check out the clip below; and don’t fret — if you miss it the first time, I went ahead and replayed it a second time and slowed it down while zooming in so you can get a better look. And the best part about the slo-mo replay is Harry Kalas’ voice is also skewed, making him sound shitface drunk.
If you still don’t notice it, check the screenshots after the jump.
