TEAMS: Houston Astros

A few of the good guys from last year's championship team aren't in red pinstripes today, and they weren't in the Phils clubhouse for the champagne showers. One of them is Chris Coste, who as we all know suited up for the Astros in this series and had a great view of his former teammates celebrating their third straight division title. Although he's not on the roster right now, he still earned a piece of that title, and we're fortunate that his great baseball story reached its apex in our town. By all accounts, the guy is pure class. The CBP fans showed him that he'll always be a Phillie last night when they gave him a loud ovation during a late-game at bat. Hope to see Coste at the next ring ceremony.
