Abreu: I Cried When Phillies Won

Paul Hagen spoke to Bobby Abreu, now with the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim, who said he was extremely happy the Phillies won the World Series:

“I was crying in a happy way because I know how hard they worked for that and how important it is to win the World Series. A lot of things were crossing my mind.”

Abreu watched the game from his New York apartment; much of the Phillies who won the series were teammates of his.

Tim first found the Phillies as a little infant at Veteran’s Stadium, cheering on a Juan Samuel game-winning home run in his very first game. With the pinstripes in his blood, he witnessed Terry Mulholland’s 1990 no-hitter, “Steve Carlton Night” at the Vet, game three of the 1993 World Series, countless games during the charmed 2008 championship season and various road excursions. Since November 2007 Tim’s been writing about them daily at Phillies Nation, becoming one of the world’s most popular Phillies scribes. You can catch him on Twitter and Facebook, as well. When he’s not talking about the Phils he’s relaxing with a St. Bernardus ABT 12 or one of his many favored brews.
