Sunday night, the Philadelphia Phillies extended its improbable postseason run with a 4-3 win over the San Diego Padres. With the victory, the Phillies will head to the World Series, where the AL’s Houston Astros will be waiting. Philadelphia has continued to get big hit after big hit as they swept St. Louis in the Wild Card and went 3-1 in the ALDS against the 2021 champion Atlanta Braves.
The Padres bested the Phils in game two, sending the ALCS to the City of Brotherly Love knotted up at 1-1. In games four and five, the Phillies rallied from behind in front of a raucous home crowd.
One particularly happy fan was actor Miles Teller, a Philadelphia sports super fan. Teller, who played Rooster in this summer’s mega blockbuster, Top Gun: Maverick, took in the games from the stands and was even brought onto the field for a Danger Zone inspired moment.

Here are six times he was thrilled to be celebrating the Phillies in the NLCS this weekend, plus a bonus shot of him donning Eagles gear at Super Bowl LIV (despite Philly not playing in it).
