French youth baseball team learns from former Phillies pros

April 21, 2025

Phillies baseball has gone international! Earlier this week, the youth baseball Sivigny Lions, a French team from just outside Paris, were hosted at the Phillies’ Urban Youth Academy Fields at FDR Park. The youngsters were treated to a baseball clinic and received hitting, fielding and pitching tips from our very own Phillies Ambassadors and formers players: 1993 National League champions Mickey Morandini and Milt Thompson (also 2008 World Series champion hitting coach), and 1980 World Series champion Dickie Noles.

Check out the highlights from this special experience for these young athletes.
