Being that it’s pretty much a foregone conclusion that Pat Burrell will not return to the Phillies next year, this afternoon might have been the last time we see him as a member of the Fightins’.
Sad, I know, but at least The Bat went out on top: A World Champion whose double in the eighth inning wound up being the winning run scored in Game 5.
And during the parade today, Mr. Burrell, his lovely wife Michelle, and dog Elvis were the leads in the parade, seated in a Budweiser carriage powered by eight Clydesdales. Not a bad way to go out:
After the jump, some more shots of Pat & family from the parade:
Thanks, Pat.
