If there’s something Roy Halladay loves more than baseball, it’s bass fishing. The photo above was taken during a recent fishing trip Halladay enjoyed with former Bassmaster Classic Champion, Skeet Reese. Like a six-year-old whose excitement won’t allow him to sleep on Christmas Eve, you just know our favorite little man got up extra early to get a jump on those fish. And because he is Roy Halladay, extra early probably meant getting there three days in advance while robotically working on his casting.
The trip was actually set up by the Phillies as a gift to Doc to commemorate his perfect game back in May. It’s a pretty cool thing to see a team taking care of its' players, going above and beyond to recognize their achievements, and seemingly doing it without a ton of fanfare.
Here’s a polite, gentlemanly golf clap to the Phils organization.
You can read the full escapade over at ESPN.
I dunno C-Load, I thought the phils were a little cheap with the Doc on this one. He etches his name in the history books, that at least deserves a free car or a college named after him someplace. Rename Philly U to Harold Leroy Halladay III Technical and Vocational Academy.
