Phillies All Time Leaders – Through 2025

Philadelphia_PhilliesTo paraphrase from a famous movie, the one constant through all the years has been baseball.  As we head into the holiday season, we continue our look at the all-time leaders in both offensive and defensive categories for all 30 teams. Today, we take a deeper dive into the Philadelphia Phillies.

The Phillies began life in 1883 and are the oldest continuous franchise that hasn’t moved cities or changed names.  I’ve seen 144 players wearing the Phillie uniform during the 23 times I’ve seen them play live, including three times, across three different trips, in the city of San Francisco.
