1. Imagine driving by this without knowing the context and thinking he’s leaving.

2. THAT’S OUR FUCKING GUY RIGHT THERE

3. Awesome player, better person

4. My eyes are leaking.

5. When you make a guys mom cry you’ve really moved the needle.

6. How they’d get them rented, made, and hung so fast? Can we put those guys in charge of fixing potholes?

   Classy guy. What a special weekend of support and love.

7. I’m still standing at full attention since Saturday and it isn’t going down. Should I be concerned?

8. Philly fans aren’t hard to please, just play hard and be accountable when you’re not playing well. Do that and we’ll do exactly what happened this weekend.

9. Amazing. Class act.

10. He won’t get the last word. Philly fans, we gotta pool our money together for billboards that say “You’re welcome, Trea.”

11. *But but but he’s making millions this year and all these billboards only cost $100,000*

    — some ‘true’ Philly fan calling into WIP tomorrow morning as he contemplates his will to live driving towards his 9-5

12. Bryce and Trea… Co-Captains of the Phillies for years to come

    Just as we all predicted when they came up as Nationals

13. so cool to see this go from an idea/debate to this excellent timeline

14. TREA TURNER

15. I saw this driving back from Jersey today, and I thought “dang, that’s awesome! the Phillies really got this done quick.”

    Knowing Trea himself did it makes me a bit emotional. Good on you, Trea.

16. THIS is why I’m proud to be a Philly fan!

17. How can you not want to make out with a baseball?
