In 2010, the Phillies acquired Oswalt from the Houston Astros, and he went 7-1 with a 1.74 ERA.

Sure, a fan running onto the field during a game is nothing new. But a fan pulling off a full monty dash across the field? That's usally reserved for soccer matches, right?

During Thursday night's matchup between the Phillies and the St. Louis Cardinals, one fan got into the spirit (spirits?) and decided that he wanted to show off the huge Disney-themed tattoo on his left side.

The best way to do that is to go streaking, right up the quad and into Busch Stadium.

UPDATE:

Through the power of social media, MLB seems to have been made aware of their glaring error and pulled the Roy Halladay bobblehead doll.


Can Roy Halladay throw lefthanded? Major League Baseball seems to think so. In a bizarre merchandising snafu first brought to light by the crack investigative team at Zoo with Roy, MLB is selling Roy Halladay bobblehead dolls depicting the Phillies' righthanded Cy Young winner with a ball in his left hand and a glove on his right.
