Meet the 2010 Ballgirls…Part 2

I promised more information about the ballgirls, so this is the second of three installments of “Meet the 2010 Ballgirls.”  This week we have Fehran and Katie representing our veterans.   Fehran told me that she is really looking forward to Opening Day, and the smell of fresh grass and funnel cake.   She also mentioned that she can’t wait to see Roy Halladay pitch, and I’m sure there are many other Philadelphia fans anxious to see him pitching for our Phils!  We are also introducing you to Victoria, Patti, Emily and Bridgette, four of the rookies for this year.   Enjoy learning where we are from and some other random facts about us and don’t forget, pitchers and catchers report in 9 days!
