FOX 29's Jennifer Joyce reports. PHILADELPHIA - Math class led by Phillies Manager Joe Girardi? Yes, it's a real thing. "Today I joined a group of seventh graders from William Meredith School in Queen Village for an hour-long math lesson with Mr.
G," Girardi told FOX 29. The Northwestern grad, who has an industrial engineering degree, has been spending his newfound "free" time this spring developing baseball-related math lessons for Meredith students in sixth through eighth grades "I saw Peyton Manning went on during a class at the University of Tennessee and I thought what a great idea to give the kids something to look forward to every week," he explained.
