The newly formatted replacement for the annual celebrity softball game carries uncertainty. Still, one thing is for certain: fans in Philadelphia will relish the opportunity to cheer some of their legendary players to victory.

Ryan Howard is a home run-hitting legend in Citizens Bank Park, while Jimmy Rollins won a National League MVP award at the height of his Phillies career. Shane Victorino was, and remains, a fan-favorite who captured a World Series title with his former teammates in 2008.

2026 Hall of Fame inductee Andruw Jones spent plenty of seasons frustrating Phillies fans and crushing their dreams of additional hardware, and could put a damper on the debut edition of the 3-on-3 in the City of Brotherly Love.

The most intriguing player to watch, though, is a wide receiver who had one of the greatest statistical seasons any player at his position ever has for the Eagles across the parking lot in Lincoln Financial Field, Hall of Famer Terrell Owens.

TO has competed in five previous All-Star Celebrity Softball games and won MVP twice. He knows how to have fun, but can show out on baseball's grandest stage.

For that reason, Team Rollins should have the upper hand and be considered the favorite.

Even more so when you add in Tiane Jennings' .261 average, four home runs, and nine RBIs for the Texas Volts in the still-young AUSL season.

Prediction: Team Rollins emerges victoriously
