Philadelphia Phillies by hoyalawya76

Question 6

Things finally started to turn around for the Phillies in 1948 when a 21-year-old rookie pitcher from Springfield, IL joined the club, going 7-9, 3.18 in 20 starts. He was joined by a fleet-footed CF from Tilden, Nebraska, who made the All-Star team in his rookie year, batting .333 with a .410 OBP and 32 steals. The two men would remain teammates for 12 seasons and would eventually join one another in Cooperstown. Name BOTH Phillies greats.

Robin Roberts AND Richie Ashburn
