The
Philadelphia Phillies are a
Major League Baseball team based in
Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. They are a member of the
Eastern Division of Major League Baseball's
National League. The team has played officially under two names since beginning play in 1883: the current moniker, as well as the "
Quakers", which was used in conjunction with "Phillies" during the team's early history.[1][2] The team was also known unofficially as the "
Blue Jays" during the World War II era.[3] Since the franchise's inception, 2,081 players have made an appearance in a competitive game for the team, whether as an offensive player (
batting and
baserunning) or a defensive player (
fielding,
pitching, or both).
Of those 2,081 Phillies, 99 have had
surnames beginning with the letter
D. Two of those players have been inducted into the
Baseball Hall of Fame: outfielder
Ed Delahanty, who played two stints for Philadelphia—from 1888 to 1889, and again from 1891 to 1901;[4] and outfielder
Hugh Duffy, who was a Phillie for three seasons (1904–1906) after being out of the major leagues for two years.[5] The Hall of Fame lists the Phillies as Delahanty's primary team,[6] and he is a member of the
Philadelphia Baseball Wall of Fame, as is catcher
Darren Daulton.[7] Delahanty holds two
franchise records, amassing 442
doubles and 157
triples to lead all Phillies in those categories.[8] Pitcher
Bill Duggleby also holds a record; he
hit 81 batters in his eight-year career in Philadelphia.[9]
One player,
Ed Daily, has made 30% or more of his Phillies appearances as a pitcher and a
position player. He amassed a 42–36 pitching record with a 2.77 ERA while batting .230 with six home runs as an outfielder.[22]
