awwww… the cuteness! Phil you are awesome. Getting to know you and your family makes you seem more real than any other player if that makes sense.. hahaha.. i have neices around those age too. haha. do they bug you a lot to play baseball?
aww they’re so cute. very pretty. and a really nice picture btw. are you the cool laid back uncle? good luck tomorrow! & its great sharing pictures of your family. its nice
The picture is absolutely gorgeous and the girls are just adorable. Thank you so much. I’m touched and honored that you shared this with us. Thanks Phil.
love the random picture idea! your nieces are adorable. Only 6 more Thursdays until The Office comes back! (April 10th). AND baseball will be back by then. YESSSS! My heart soars with the eagles nest I’m so excited.
aww, phil they’re beautiful! like others have said a great pic as well. how old are they? i also have 3 neices and a nephew, and it’s a blast! best of luck tomorrow.. thanks again for the the blog and Q&A =)
They are cute! I know the feeling. I am constantly showing pics of my niece and nephew also. Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to your post during the season. Best of luck against USF!
too cute! they look like theyre the same age as my 2 nieces its pretty cool that you share family picutes with your fans youve gotta be one cool uncle phil haha good with with the spring training games! see you in new york soon!
Amazing picture ..two cuties and awesome scenery. Kudos to the photographer …
I think you should make Random Picture of the Day a daily feature. It really is nice of you to share experiences and family with us…the fans.
Phil, you are such a fantastic person. When I watch your interviews…the maturity you display at such a young age is truly impressive. Keep up the good work …and ..I’ll say it again …your parents raised you right !!!!
Also ..congrats for being Yankee Player of the Month on the It’s High, It’s Far….it’s Caught blog. “Bronx Blogger” Phil Hughes named YANKEE OF THE MONTH
the picture is brilliant, great sepia tones…I recently took up photography as a hobby, is there a way to share a photo on here. That might be a good contest for the future, best picture in a certain catagory or something like that. Anyway, just wanted to say good luck against my bulls. I went to grad school at USF. I worked with the baseball team and the volleyball team as an athletic trainer.
I have to be honest this whole site is really awesome getting to know you better as a person and more than just a ball player. I’ve been keeping tabs on you since high school, I even played against you. I played for La Mirada.
That’s a great picture. I like your new “random picture” feature. It’s pretty cool.
Aside from that, I’m walking on cloud nine right now. I noticed a few days ago that they were auctioning off one one of those framed “I want to thank the Good Lord” Joe Dimaggio signs over at MLB.com auctions. This one was signed by our boy Phil and the opening bid was $100. I threw down a bid thinking I was bound to be overbid at some point. The auction ended about 25 minutes ago and I’m happy to say I walked away the winner. I was the sole bidder and snaked it for a cool $100!!! Awesome deal considering Steiner sells them unsigned for $150, and they sell them signed by Phil for $250. And I’ve got mine for $100!!! I’m stoked!! I was literally biting my nails watching the timer count down, refreshing every 2 seconds expecting to see a higher bid.
Keep up the good work Phil. Good luck against So. Florida.
Also, I have 9 nieces and nephews (with number 10 on the way), so I know what it’s like to be incredibly proud of them.
I want to echo what someone else said – this blog is great because you are allowing us to get to know you as a person instead of just a number. Phil, you are truly creating something very special and clearly you now have a bond with Yankee fans all over the world. It’s really wonderful for you to share your life with us -
Your nieces are very cute and the picture is amazing! Nothing like a California sunset. Your nieces remind me of my nieces Carolyn and Katie they love when I take pictures of them and that is just two of thirteen nieces and nephews! Whew it gets crazy at christmas time….
that could pass for a professional pic, if it isn’t…. thanks for showing us your family to us Phil- -we appreciate it! Good luck for the rest of spring
Very sweet. Beautiful shot with the ocean behind them. Do you have any more nieces or nephews? It has to be something when your uncle is a famous baseball player!
Pretty little ladies. I’m assuming they’re Yankees fan, that is if they are baseball fans first at such a tender age. Awww, Stella has your smile, I think. I love kids.
Good luck against USF today, I know you’re gonna pitch an inning too.
Cute kids, Phil how old are they! They must thinkthe world of you! Do they ever go watch you play! How cool would it be to have a uncle or someone you know that close to you that plays for the greatest team ever! Are they Yankees fans?
they care cuties…I take my Nephews and Niece to a ton of Yankee games throughout the season..they call me “uncle bestest” LOL So, I know the love an Uncle has for a nephew, a niece or both! =-)
awwww… the cuteness! Phil you are awesome. Getting to know you and your family makes you seem more real than any other player if that makes sense.. hahaha.. i have neices around those age too. haha. do they bug you a lot to play baseball?

First time poster, long time reader…

I have to be honest this whole site is really awesome getting to know you better as a person and more than just a ball player. I’ve been keeping tabs on you since high school, I even played against you. I played for La Mirada.

What a photo – where is that? I wish I were there right now – it’s about 20 degrees in NY

That’s a great picture. I like your new “random picture” feature. It’s pretty cool.

Really nice picture of your nieces, Phil. I’ll echo the comments that the “Random Picture of the Day” is a really neat idea.
Pretty little ladies. I’m assuming they’re Yankees fan, that is if they are baseball fans first at such a tender age. Awww, Stella has your smile, I think. I love kids.
Good luck against USF today, I know you’re gonna pitch an inning too.
