It is Alumni Weekend down at the ballpark and former Phillies outfielder Bobby Abreu was added to the Phillies Wall of Fame in a ceremony before tonight's ballgame against the Chicago White Sox.
Abreu played on the Phillies from 1998-2006 where he was a two time member of the National League All-Star Team in 2004 and 2005. Abreu also won a Gold Glove Award in 2005 and a Silver Slugger Award in 2006.
During the ceremony, a highlight video of Abreu's career in Philly was played and Jimmy Rollins unveiled Abreu's Wall of Fame Plaque.

Abreu was very emotional in his speech to the crowd (Abreu Wall of Fame Speech) where he thanked the Phillies organization and the fans.
