Mac finally got his game of catch.

It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia fans should remember that Mac (creator Rob McElhenney) dreams of playing catch with retired Phillies second baseman Chase Utley. It almost happened in the sixth season of the FX series, in the episode "The Gang Gets Stranded in the Woods." But, well... the gang got stranded in the woods.
