And when everything was said and done, let it be known that the Philadelphia Phillies were the last team standing in 2008. As a National League team, they were underdogs against the Tampa Bay Rays. But they proved their worth. The following names will now be immortal in the history books, and get their World Series ring, the highest honor.

Don’t listen to Philly fans.
Hey, somebody out there doesn’t like me very much! but i say to you now that the phillies win was
a fluke and that they will be in last place next year! ha ha..
TOLD you Phillies RULE.
Yankees SUCK.
I agree that 2008 was a Diamond Mind Baseball season.
There are some great DMB names on that roster. Congrats to Matt Stairs, Scott Eyre,Jamie Moyer, Pedro Feliz, Brad Lidge, Pat Burrell, and the rest of the Champion Phillies.
I’m glad they, along with the young lions Utley, Howard, Hammels, and others are immortalized.
