Finally, there’s proof of the 2008 Phillies rookie hazing
Posted by meech.one at 7:45 pm ET 14 Comments

Way back in September, it was reported that the veteran members of the Phillies forced the rookies to dress up for their annual hazing. Unfortunately (and perhaps inexcusably), nobody had visual evidence of the event, and it was feared that these pictures would never surfice.

Well, fear not — The Fightins dot com has you covered with your exclusive first look.

(Unless, of course, you already watched the Phillies Yearbook DVD, in which case it would be your not-so-exclusive second look. Either way, I went ahead and captured the screen shot for you.)

That’s J.A. Happ as a Roman Soldier, Greg Golson in the 20’s-style slip dress, Lou Marson with the leather short-shorts/vest/Zorro mask ensemble, Kyle Kendrick looking dominatrix-y in his chaps, cod piece, chest thingee, cap, mask, and whip, followed by Mike Cervenak as Britney Spears, and first-year strength and conditioning coach Doug Lien as a geisha girl.  Enjoy:

(l-r) J.A. Happ, Greg Golson, Lou Marson, Kyle Kendrick, Mike Cervenak, and Doug Lien

    Kyle Kendrick definitely, I think has the worst.

  2. Zach Says:

    Kendrick should be the geisha. They should try to trade him to Japan again.

  3. AJ Says:

    according to the costume choices Haap is way more respected than kendrick

  4. Amanda Says:

    hahah wow. why did kyle get the rookie hazing? he wasnt a rookie.

  5. GM-Carson Says:

    How do you get your hands on these fantastic pictures all the time?

  6. jms Says:

    I’m not entirely sure why I don’t understand this…but why was Kendrick included in this year’s hazing, and not the year before? Wasn’t he in 2008 Spring Training?

    Too much thinking for a Sunday, sorry.

  7. Jayson Werth his weight in gold Says:

    Ok guys, be honest… Mike Cervenak as Britney Spears… Would ya?

  8. KK Says:

    I just got home from Pitman, NJ. I saw the “Perfect Season” screening down the street from my brother’s house. The shit was awesome. Capped off a great day… Went to CBP to get my picture taken with the Commissioner’s Trophy, picked up a copy of “The Perfect Season” for my old man (Christmas shopping now done), and saw the screening in an old fashioned movie theatre with a swarm of Fightin’ Phils’ Fans.

  12. FreddiePickles Says:

    P.s. Pat the Bat got an awesome cheer every time he came on the screen. Fans are definitely feeling the loss.

  13. maria Says:

    I went to Pitman too to see The Perfect Season. That was awesome.

  14. James Beale Says:

    why do I get the feeling that the vets are going to keep making Kendrick dress up until he’s 35?
