What's even better than hitting a home run in a Little League game?
Hitting it on the day the Phillie Phanatic happens to be visiting -- and celebrating success with the big green guy!
The Phanatic was visiting the West Cumberland Little League homecoming game in Hopewell, New Jersey this weekend.
It was the last game of an undefeated season for the Riggins Nursery team, so the stakes were high and energy was electric as little league player Cole Samuels stepped up to bat, just moments after his teammate hit a home run.
Samuels, wearing the number 74 on his jersey in remembrance of his grandfather, responded with another home run. As he rounded the bases enroute to home plate, the Phanatic jumped out of the dugout with the rest of the team to celebrate.
The Phanatic loves a home run. Maybe one day he'll be celebrating another great hit from Samuels -- perhaps in a bigger stadium in south Philly?
