2002 Fleer Tradition Update #U358 Vicente Padilla AS

The Phillies Room Salutes Phillies All-Stars of the 2000s

All-Star Game: 2002 (Miller Park, Milwaukee)
All-Star Game Performance: Vicente is known as "the National League pitcher on the mound when the All-Star Game ended in a tie that year." I imagine Major League Baseball is still a little embarrassed about that one. Vicente pitched two innings that night (the 10th and the 11th) allowing just a lead-off 11th inning walk to Omar Vizquel.

The enigmatic Vicente is currently pitching with the Texas Rangers with fellow former Phillie Kevin Millwood.
