Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. Who led the team in home runs in 2007?

Answer: Ryan Howard

Ryan Howard, the 2006 NL MVP, followed up his MVP year by hitting 47 homers.

2. Which pitcher led the team in wins?

Answer: Cole Hamels

Cole Hamels, in his first full season with the Phillies, became known as the team's ace by winning 15 games. He also made his first All-Star game in 2007.

3. How many Phillies were chosen to play in the All-Star game in 2007?

Answer: 3

Chase Utley, Aaron Rowand, and Cole Hamels all were voted into the 2007 All-Star game. Chase Utley was chosen as the starting 2nd baseman for the NL. Many Phillies fans think it was unfair that Jimmy Rollins was not chosen for the game, considering the fact that he had better numbers than that starting shortstop, Jose Reyes of the Mets.

4. How many games did the Phillies win in 2007?

Answer: 89

The Phillies got to the playoffs by winning 89 games in the regular season. Jimmy Rollins made a bold prediction by stating that the team would win 100 in 2008.

5. Jimmy Rollins achieved the honor of joining the 20-20-20-20 club (20 homers, 20 doubles, 20 triples, 20 stolen bases). How many players before him also achieved this incredible honor?

Answer: 3

Frank "Wildfire" Schulte (1911), Willie Mays (1957), and Curtis Granderson (2007), were the other three players in the history of baseball to reach this achievement.

6. What team did the Phillies beat on the last day of the season to win the NL East?

Answer: Washington Nationals

The Phillies defeated the Nationals 6-1 on September 30th. The Mets and Phillies were tied for first in the division going into the game, but because the Phils won their game and the Mets lost their game to the Marlins, the Phillies won the division.

7. Jimmy Rollins, 2007 MVP, beat out which player by 17 votes to win the MVP award?

Answer: Matt Holliday

J-Roll beat out Colorado Rockies left fielder Matt Holliday to win the MVP award. Jimmy is the 5th Phillie to win the MVP award. He joins Chuck Klein, Jim Konstanty, Ryan Howard, and Mike Schmidt, a 3-time winner, on the list for the Phils.

Answer: Aaron Rowand

10. Jimmy Rollins and Ryan Howard have both won the NL MVP award. Which Phillie finished eighth in the voting for the award in 2007?
