Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Darren Daulton led the National League in what category in 1992?

Answer: RBI

"Dutch" was one of the few bright spots on the 1992 Phillies as they finished last in the NL East. The Phillies actually led the league in scoring. The problem was they allowed too many runs.
2. The Phillies opening day shortstop in 1999 was who?

Answer: Desi Relaford

Desi Relaford started the year at short but was too inconsistent. Throughout the year the team used Alex Arias, Kevin Jordan, and Kevin Sefcik. The same group split time in 2000 with Jimmy Rollins making his big league debut in September of that year.
3. In the 2001 season, the Phillies completed a rare 5-game sweep of what team?

Answer: Florida Marlins

The series was a result of a prior rain out that forced a double-header. During the 2001 season, the Phillies had tremendous success against the Marlins.
4. Which Phillie hit for the cycle in 1995?

Answer: Gregg Jefferies

Jefferies posted a good year for the Phillies in '95. Not only did Jefferies hit for the cycle, but he also played 4 positions and hit a grand slam during that year.
5. What year did the Phillies decide to change the multi-colored seats at Veterans Stadium to all blue?

Answer: 1995

When the Vet opened in 1971, the seats were billed to the fans as a reminder of fall (Fall Classic, World Series). The blue seats looked much better.
6. When Citizens Bank Park opened in 2004, the Phillies used which bullpen?

Answer: Top, closest to fans

Early on the Phil's relievers asked to move down to the bottom as they were tired of the drunken fans yelling. What was supposed to be a nice touch to the stadium ended up being another horror for visiting pitchers. The Vet's bullpens were in right and left field.
7. Who was the last opposing starting pitcher to pitch against the Phillies at the Vet?

Answer: Greg Maddux

John Smoltz was the last opposing pitcher to face the Phillies but it was as a closer. The Braves won the last game as Chase Utley grounded into a double-play.
8. Which Phillie placed a bunt in Pittsburgh and ended up scoring on the same play?

Answer: Scott Rolen

The ball was not scored a home run because of two errors on the play. However, Rolen did circle the bases.
9. Which Phillie turned a rare unassisted triple play?

Answer: Mickey Morandini

The feat happened in Pittsburgh in 1992.
10. Which of the following hit a grand slam in a Phillies uniform?

Answer: Jeff Juden

On August 25, 1995, Juden helped set a National League record for being the third pitcher in the same season to hit a grand slam.
