Philadelphia Phillies

The Philadelphia Phillies are a Major League Baseball team based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

The Phillies have played in the National League (NL) since their inception in 1883. Since the divisional realignment of 1969, the Phillies have played in the NL's Eastern Division. The team has 31 Hall of Famers.

Although the Phillies are currently the only major-league baseball team in Philadelphia, the Philadelphia Athletics, now based in Oakland, were the club's crosstown rivals from 1901 to 1954. The Phillies were the Athletics' tenant at Shibe Park (later Connie Mack Stadium) from 1938 through 1954. The Phillies have won one World Series Championship in their history, against the Kansas City Royals in 1980.
