In a brilliant move, the Phillies have recruited two Phillies greats to throw out the ceremonial first pitch — the MVP of the ‘83 NLCS and the most stylish man in broadcasting, Sarge Matthews, along with overseer of the Phillies annual BBQ challenge and coverer of one-quarter of the earth’s surface, Garry Maddox.

I couldn’t think of a more perfect way to kick-off the series.
