Hey everyone, it’s your boy back again with another deep dive into the archives of baseball history. Today, I’m tackling the 1982 Phillies roster. Yeah, you heard that right, 1982! It all started when I was cleaning out my attic and stumbled upon an old box of baseball cards. I found a few from that 1982 Phillies team, and boom, down the rabbit hole I went.
First off, I needed to get a complete list of players. So I hit up the internet, typing in “1982 Phillies roster” into my search bar. I found this website that had the whole roster, plus some basic stats. I mean, who knew there were so many guys on a team?
Finding the Info
I started jotting down names like Luis Aguayo, Porfi Altamirano, and the rest. They even had info on their positions, batting and throwing styles, and the record of this team.
- Basic Info:
- Team Record: 89-73
- League: National League (NL)
Then, I got curious about the bigger picture. Like, who was the manager? Turns out, it was Pat Corrales. The website mentioned that they finished 2nd place in the N.L. East.
Diving Deeper
I spent a good chunk of time going through all 38 players listed. But I was still hungry for more. I wanted the juicy stuff, you know? Like, who were the star players? Who hit the most home runs? Who had the most strikeouts as a pitcher?
So I kept digging. The web had more information. I’m talking about detailed stats on batting, pitching, and fielding. There were even game logs and daily lineups. Seriously, this was getting intense!
Wrapping It Up
After hours of going through all this data, I finally felt like I had a good grasp of the 1982 Phillies. It was like piecing together a puzzle, and it was a blast from the past. I even found out about a player named Rafael Marchan who was a third-string catcher, currently on the injured list.
It’s crazy how much information is out there, just waiting to be discovered. This whole experience reminded me why I love digging into these old teams and players. It’s like time travel, but with more stats. Hope you enjoyed this little trip down memory lane with me. Until next time, keep digging, folks!
