Who's That Guy?
Every other year there must be a spring training prank in Clearwater. Two years ago there were shirtless Pat Burrell t-shirts with the words "Man or Machine?" on the back, and Kyle Kendrick thought he had been traded to Japan.
This year the Phillies got Phillies director of baseball communications Greg Casterioto, who recently appeared in South Jersey magazine's story about South Jersey singles. The team (from what I gather almost entirely clubhouse and PR folks) made up t-shirts with the photo from Casterioto's article. They also put his image on the outfield wall at Bright House Field.
Chase Utley led Casterioto outside the clubhouse for the unveiling in the left field corner.
