Philadelphia Flyers players Sean Walker, Joel Farabee, Travis Konecny, Travis Sanheim, and Cal Petersen recently swapped their hockey sticks for baseball bats, taking part in some batting practice at Citizens Bank Park. It was a delightful crossover moment between the NHL and MLB as the Flyers got into the spirit of America's pastime.

In this friendly showdown, Travis Sanheim emerged as the ultimate slugger, claiming the title of this year's batting practice home run derby champion. He showcased his power with not one, but two impressive home runs, earning the admiration of his teammates and fans alike.
But Sanheim wasn't the only Flyer to connect with the baseball. Travis Konecny also got in on the action, sending one soaring out of the park. It was a display of their athleticism and versatility beyond the ice rink.
This fun-filled event provided a unique opportunity for these hockey stars to enjoy a different sport and bond as a team in a relaxed setting. It's always refreshing to see athletes from different disciplines come together and share their talents.
As the NHL season approaches, the Flyers' batting practice home run derby served as a lighthearted reminder that sports can bring people together in unexpected ways. Fans can look forward to the excitement both on the ice and, apparently, on the baseball field as well.
