Three of the 15 players who have managed four home runs in a single game are Phillies. These are Ed Delahanty in 1896, Chuck Klein in 1936 and Mike Schmidt.

The Philadelphia Phillies was called the “Quakers” from the time they were formed in 1883. However the name has evolved to Philadelphias then finally to Phillies. One of the biggest wins by the Philadelphia Phillies was way back in 1980 when they got the World Series Championship. Despite being faced with long years of being on the losing end in the football field except their division title last year, the Philadelphia Phillies are raring to get no less than a Division Title during the 2008 season. The Phillies are however not short of talented players and have five members who are MVP Awardees including Mike Schmidt, Chuck Klein, Jim Konstanty, Ryan Howard and Jimmy Rollins. The big break they needed was however achieved courtesy of Grover Cleveland Alexander and Gavvy Cravath who led the team to their first pennant.
