| How does the 2nd baseman feel about his most surprising autograph ever? The photo was posted on Phillips’ official site, www.datdudebp.com |
Cincinnati’s Brandon Phillips can play, on field and off.
If baseball had an All-Twitter team, he’d be a captain.
Posing for fan photos. Sharing those photos. He does it all.
Almost all.
The always-amazing website www.sportscollectors.net provided two stunning stats on Phillips. He’s still at a 70 percent success rate for fan mail. However, members on the website haven’t recorded a TTM success from him since October, 2011.
Everyone’s grooving on the story about Phillips responding with kindness to a drunken Pirates fan last week, providing a humorous but pointed “personalized” autograph.
Will BP apply half the effort on his fan mail that he showed toward a soused heckler? Many sober collectors are waiting. And waiting. And waiting…
Now that’s one heckuva family heirloom. BP made someone’s day with that autograph.
