The final out of the World Series. The Stadium goes crazy and celebrates. Watch my other Phillies videos with more footage + parade.
@lilrobda1 he left because of salary problems!! He never wanted to leaven’s that’s why he came back!! He loved this franchise and know he’s back. 4 aces.. R2C2!!! The phab four!! I bet ur not even a phils fan!! Ur jealous we got him aren’t you?
@lilrobda1 Maybe because he loved philly and he knows he has a chance to win a ring there now.
@lilrobda1 dude, he got traded. He never wanted to leave Philly. He said in an interview last year that he was shocked when he found out he was traded and that he thought he was going to spend the rest of his career there. Cliff Lee is not an idiot. He is a god!
Cliff Lee is an idiot, why would he leave then come back when he knew Halladay had just signed with the team, and if he had stayed, who know’s what would have happened this year. He could have actually got a ring this year, even though he found some way to get to the World Series again. This guy is just traveling places.
i still get goosebumps, EVERYTIME. R2C2 baby, BRING IT HOME!!!!!!!!!!!!
@gtmsnba13 i feel sorry
not surpirse there was a huge party right in the city. and it was chaos O_O
@ThePhilliesforlife im a Rays fan
10 people are rays fans
I was there too. That was sweet.
Even knowing how it would end, I could still feel the nervousness while he was pitching, and the relief when they charged the mound. Phillies For Life!
@Rain4Life2009 Too bad Joe Girardi spent too much time making taco bell ads rather than managing his team.
im not too sure if your a yankees fan or a gaints fan, (probably yankees) but if you are one its weird for you to say that because the yankees didnt make it to the world sereis either

I discovered on Full Tilts official blog last friday you can create a account on the Full Tilt web page and use the promo code AMERICAS if you do not presently have 1 with them.I think its the recommended way if you’re a beginner to start playing.. They will double your initial deposit also a couple other amazing perks. It’s limited to the first 2500 players that sign up using it
@victorEL3MEN2 I think it’s time for you to go fuck yourself.
im sick and tired of this team -_____________- theres nooo way there goin 2 the world series AGAIN????!!!!!!!! at least the yankees had a one year break on not goin 2 the playoffs in 08 and there not going 2 win it all again with this kind of bullpen, i think its time 4 the reds 2 feel like world champions once again like they did 20 years ago…..
