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 this list's 33 pitchers, two share the best
win–loss record, in terms of
winning percentage:
Alex Joneswon one game and
lost none;[12] and
Eric Junge collected a 2–0 record in two seasons with Philadelphia.[13]Larry Jackson leads all pitchers in this list with 41 victories,[14] while
Syl Johnson's 51 defeats are the highest total in that category.[15] Jackson's 373
strikeouts are the best total of any pitcher in this list.[14] Among the pitchers whose names begin with I,
Ham Iburg leads in wins (11), losses (18), winning percentage (.379), and strikeouts (106).[16]
H The
National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum determines which cap a player wears on their plaque, signifying "the team with which he made his most indelible mark". The Hall of Fame considers the player's wishes in making their decision, but the Hall makes the final decision as "it is important that the logo be emblematic of the historical accomplishments of that player’s career".[75]
P Players are listed at a position if they appeared in 30% of their games or more during their Phillies career, as defined by
Baseball-Reference. Additional positions may be shown on the Baseball-Reference website by following each player's citation.
