2:44 might be the best play I've ever seen a 2B make and it was in a crucial situation during the game. A lot of 2B might struggle to get 1 out there.

I sure miss watching Brandon Phillips make all those athletic plays at second base. He was worth the price of admission all by himself.

I remember watching every one of these moments live. BP was insane

Most underrated player ever best fielder I've ever seen if he had more arm strength he'd easily be the best ss fielder too

Brandon “are you kiddin me, wow!” Phillips

It is hard to describe articulately but the best I can say is that he was an artist in the field. Haven’t seen anyone play defense with the same level of creativity.

Greatest 2nd baseman of all time. I grew up watching him play while playing in select leagues as a second baseman with the number 4 also (I had a different reason for the 4 and I was pretty good but I wasn't great) definitely my favorite baseball player ever. I was so sad when they traded him and Frazier. I'm gonna be mad if he don't get hall of fame.

I'm mostly a braves fan. But the reds are my second favorite team cause the double a affiliate is in my town. I had fun watching this guy for both teams. Always smiling and clearly enjoys the game

Man had the smoothest hands I’ve ever seen. Man’s level of swag was off the charts.

He really got Baseball IQ especially in defense

One of the best second basemen in my lifetime. He made plays that look hard to others, he made it look sooooo easy.

Man BP could ball. He always seemed like he was having so much fun. Moved through space with minimal waste.

Brandon Phillips was the last thing my dad and I talked about before he passed. I found him an hour after we talked about Brandon. We loved watching Brandon Phillips. It's good to see the Reds winning again.

Love that the last highlight is him spoiling a no hitter haha

We are SO proud if you bp! Always giving your best ALWAYS😘😘😘💞💞💞💞 miss u in the Braves uniform but will ALWAYS cheer for you!!! Im sure you'll get love in Bean town too praying for a great transition, injury free safe season for u & the team 👏👏👏

Could you guys imagine dat dude with todays reds? An infield of Votto, BP, Elly and McClain would be must see every day

I'm not saying the Reds treated Brandon Phillips poorly, but I never felt like they really appreciated him. Every night you went to the park you knew you were going to see him do something special defensively. When you saw him play in person it was something different But what gets me is what he did offensively. Put him at the top of the lineup, he'd get on base. Bat'em clean up' he'd drive in 100 runs. AND HE NEVER COMPLAINED ABOUT IT ONCE! I guess I'm not telling anyone anything they don't already know, but I just feel like the Reds could have done more to keep him a Red for his entire career besides try and trade him every year. Also, and I get it's a long comment, but look at BP's #'s in the playoffs. Compare them to the guy they made sure to lock up. How nice was Phillip's when it came to talking w/ fans. I know I'm going to get flak for this, but how many times have any of you that frequent GABP seen Votto toss a kid a ball?

Brandon Phillips is a fan favorite in Cincinnati. He was up there with Votto level fandom when he was with the Reds. He could do everything and was always electric to watch, but I would like to know where you got that e Reds tried to trade him multiple times. I never heard that and would like to read. It is my understanding that he was considered a near franchise player until he got a bit older. With that being said, miss watching the guy play regardless of the jersey he’s wearing. Haven’t seen a player like him since he was outside of the MLB.

Of all the great 2nd basemen, Brandon's been my favorite to watch.

2:45. Greatest play EVER!

I had no clue until today that he is with Jade Cargill. Their kids are gonna be insane athletes.

BOSTON BOUND!

His prime as a second baseman is one of the best ever. Jeff Kent and Robby Alomar might have him beat, but man this dude was 5 tool when he was at his best. Dang near a hall of famer in my book.

To me, he should be in the HOF for his fielding alone.
