Phillies’ Bryson Stott uses subtle gesture for gender reveal

Philadelphia Phillies infielder Bryson Stott went the extra mile to help a friend make a special announcement. 

During the Phillies’ game against the Los Angeles Dodgers at Citizens Bank Park Saturday, Stott wore a unique piece of equipment for an in-game baby gender reveal. 

Stott wore a pink armband when he walked into the batter’s box for the first time in Saturday’s game. Phillies broadcaster Tom McCarthy announced the second baseman’s friend, Ryan Stevens, would soon be a father to a baby girl.
