The Philadelphia Phillies beat the New York Mets 8-7 on Saturday thanks to a Kevin Frandsen pinch-hit, walk-off home run in the bottom of the ninth off Carlos Torres.
The best part about the walk-off win wasn’t Frandsen drilling a ball out of the park on the second pitch he saw, nor was it his sweet helmet toss and high five as he rounded third. Oh no. The best part was the gesture shortstop Jimmy Rollins had waiting for him as he headed toward home plate.
Yup, Rollins was all prepared to welcome Frandsen home with a nice DX crotch chop. His message was approved by Melky Cabrera.

We must also mention that Ryan Howard went 3-for-4 with two home runs in the game to give him 10 on the season. Howard’s OPS for June is now over 1.000.
