Easily one of the most recognizable voices in all of sports announcing. He did NFL films too. I've grown up watching the Phils and Harry's been a part of that experience for my entire life. It is heartbreaking. He's a Philly icon and words can't really explain what he's meant to the city over all these years. We were blessed to have him for as long as we did. The silver lining is that he did get to see the Phils win another one after such a long drought. It's a very sad night here.

Agree 100% with every word, this is the saddest I've seen this city since, well, I don't really know..
Glad I watched that game. Didn't even know it was on till my gf texted me and told me Utley tied it up. I turned it on and got to hear Harry's last few calls.
Harry's casket is gonna be at the stadium on Saturday morning for 4 hours. Then a memorial service. Not since Babe Ruth has someone been honored like this by a major league franchise. It's pretty awesome......

EDIT: It was a really emotional and beautiful tribute. It seems silly that a baseball announcer could mean so much to so many, but Harry was one of a kind. It's hard to put into words what he means to the city and to Phillies fans.

I wasnt able to go down to the park to see the tribute but i was able to see it on tv and it was really moving. They really did it well and to me the video of harry singing high hopes just showed how much he cared about us all in philadelphia. He was one of the greatest people this city has ever seen and he appreciated the fans and we appreciated him.
Ill be at the 4/20 dollar dog day game and i hope someone hits a homer so that i can hear them play "That ball is outta here!"

I'll be there too I heard it 3 times last night ;D I wish I brought my camera to the game. The Schmidt statue was decorated for Harry with all kinds of flowers and phillys hats and signs and what not, it looked beautiful, it brought me to tears...
