Hey, Phillies, where are you going now that you've won the World Series?

Well, the uniform top Cole Hamels wore in Game 5 as he continued the performance that would eventually earn him series MVP honors is going to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in Cooperstown, N.Y.

So is a bat used by Ryan Howard in Game 4, Jayson Werth's game-used spikes, Eric Bruntlett's home cap, a batting helmet worn by Carlos Ruiz and the bat pitcher Joe Blanton used to hit a home run in Game 4.

Those items will be part of an exhibit dedicated to the 2008 World Series, and the second championship in Phillies history, that will open on Nov. 14 and remain on display through the 2009 postseason.

More information can be obtained at www.baseballhall.org or calling 888-425-5633 or 607-547-7200. *
