He may have only been a Phillie for three years, but Andrew McCutchen is still a fan favorite whenever he plays at Citizens Bank Park. The fans love him, and he shows them love back.

McCutchen ripped a line drive homer off Jesús Luzardo in the fourth inning of Sunday’s game, and apologized to someone in the crowd as he headed back to the dugout:

It was a funny moment in what’s been a pretty unexciting weekend, save for one inning on Saturday. The Phillies are currently down 5-0, the bats are cold, the stars aren’t performing, and the pitching has not been crisp. But it’s March.
