In style, baby
Noted Wolfpack baseball alum and current Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner donned some Wolfpack themed gear yesterday afternoon in a game against his former team, the Washington Nationals. I’d say it worked out pretty well for him.
Pack power on full display!

The Phillies ultimately lost the game, but Turner put forth a 2-for-4 effort including the above home run as he continues to have a fantastic season. On the year, the Wolfpack’s all-time MLB WAR leader (36.0 career WAR) is hitting .311/.356/.486, 5.1 BB%, 18.7 K%, 14-15 SB.
Hopefully Turner will roll out the Wolfpack gear more often as the Phillies head towards another postseason appearance.
