This is a total stab in the dark for my #phillies fan friends out there.
Ages ago (15+ years) the Phils sold this Phanatic ornament. My brother and his family had one they loved, but lost along with everything else in the CA fires last year. I can't find one anywhere online.
Anyone have any leads?

I must note that this is a work productivity killer cause one of these fixes will come up in Slack and then I end up watching 10 minutes of some random 1986 NFL broadcast, oops

My latest for @baseballprospectus.com is on the much-larger-than-you-knew 4,000-hit club, baseball beyond MLB's purview, discovery, and hey did you know Robinson Canó is still out there mashing away? Thanks to @adarowski.bsky.social for chatting with me about his extensive and illuminating research.
