The Phillie Phanatic held off a zombie attack by breaking out some Michael Jackson moves

For Friday night's game against the Padres, the Phillies brought the 80s back at Citizens Bank Park on 1980s Retro Night. In addition to both teams wearing throwback uniforms, fans were treated to some classic tunes between innings.
So, when a group of zombies surrounded the Phillie Phanatic on the field between innings, he took a lesson from the 80s, turned on "Thriller", and popped some serious dance moves.

While the Phanatic's channeling of Michael Jackson didn't spark a zombie retreat, it did hold them at bay and preserve safety. Even more important, we just might have found our next baseball delegate to "Dancing with the Stars."
