    A look back at Chase Utley's Phillies career

    Philadelphia to honor second baseman in pregame ceremony on June 21

Long arms, small waist. Quiet, but aggressive. Quick bat. Sneaky power. Good, soft hands. Good instincts and good baserunner. Active, moves around a lot. Can drive the ball the other way. Hitch in swing, but hands and bat are in good position at trigger. He will be a starting second baseman on a pennant winner. Top-of-the-order hitter. Should move through the system quickly.”
