- DYNAMIC DUO -
The image of Carlos Ruiz and Brad Lidge’s ecstatic embrace is the most lasting image of the Philadelphia Phillies’ 2008 World Series run. Often overlooked in a season chock full of heroes is the way that these two men forged a chemistry and one two punch more dominant than any closer-catcher combo this side of Rivera and Posada. Appropriately it is these two men that frame the Commissioners Trophy, the fruits of these two men’s greatness.
