The Phillies won their last game before the All-Star break to end the first half of the season 44-44. More impressive was their willingness to help out the grounds crew at Colorado when the tarp used to cover the field flew out of control and covered three members of the crew. Most of the Phillies in the nearly dugout, led by Shane Victorino, Chase Utley and Ryan Howard rushed out into the field thinking those crew members were in trouble and might get hurt. They didn’t think about hurting themselves in the process. It was an incredible sign of good sportsmanship featured in this video.
