Remember Chase Utley's return last season?
Man, that was fun - and so Chase Utley.
Topping that night would be a hell of a task. If you recall, "The Man" smacked a grand slam and a solo shot to the tune of not one, but two curtain calls … as a visiting player.
Guess Philly has a thing for this guy?
Well, No. 26 was back at Citizens Bank Park on Monday night for his second-ever trip to his old stomping grounds as a visiting player.
And, as you'd might expect, the reception was a sight to see.
Appreciation permeated the ballpark as the longtime fan favorite received a hearty welcome with another standing ovation, to no surprise.

Maybe Utley has some more fun in store for this four-game series.
We'll just have to wait and watch. Something tells me Phillies fans won't mind doing that.
For now, enjoy the first of the fun:
Now batting ...
... No. 26 ...
