Phillies Players Get Emoji-Fied For New Shirt

By Chelsea Lacey-Mabe

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Going to the Phillies game tonight? Some fans may be sporting a new t-shirt featuring emoji versions of throwback players like Mike Schmidt, Gary Matthews, John Kruk, Brad Lidge and of course the Phillie Phanatic.

The tee, inspired by #ThrowbackThursday, is supposed to be nostalgic of the years the team won the World Series (1980 and 2008) and the National League Championship (1983 and 1993).
