The Philadelphia Eagles are enjoying a successful season of their own in the NFL right now, but that didn't stop two of their stars from checking out the Philadelphia Phillies NLCS game and getting hyped like the rest of the stadium.

Philadelphia Phillies

It's been a good time for sports fans in the city of Philadelphia recently.

Both the Philadelphia Eagles and Philadelphia Phillies made it to their respective championship games last season (the results won't be mentioned).

With the Phillies making another deep playoff run and the Eagles off to a good start this season, it was only a matter of time before there was a crossover event between the two.

On Tuesday night, two of the city's football stars checked out Game 2 of the NLCS to see what it was all about.

Running back D'Andre Swift, a Philadelphia native, and starting safety Terrell Edmunds were up close to see their first ever baseball game.

Bleacher Report mic'd them up see how their experience went.

Based on the video, they got hyped up just like everyone else at Citizens Bank Park.

Of course, a 10-0 victory makes it much more enjoyable, as the Phillies were getting runs across and not allowing the Arizona Diamondbacks to score.

Edmunds predicted one of Kyle Schwarber's home runs, hilariously saying, "He look like he about to do damage though" after both star football players said they wanted to see a homer.

The Eagles are preparing to face the Miami Dolphins at home on Sunday Night Football. They have a 5-1 record after dropping a shocking game against the New York Jets last weekend.

It's unlikely that more football players will be attending baseball games this week as Philadelphia is out in Arizona for the road portion of the NLCS.

The next time there could be another crossover event between the two teams would on Monday for Game 6 if necessary or if the Phillies make the World Series.
