"It will be a sea of red," said Matthews, "and I can't wait for the game. I've been on the bandwagon with them the whole year. Go Phils!"
The trolley, with a police escort, made its way through city streets for about and hour and a half as beads, bracelets, cheer cards, and rally towels were tossed to pedestrians.
