Philadelphia Phillies

1933-48

The Pirates may have taken them off the hook at 16, but if not for a 78-76 campaign in 1932, the Phillies would have subjected their faithful to a mindboggling run of 31 straight losing seasons that dated back to 1918.

Pictured is Chuck Klein (1933, 36-44 Phillies).
