Phillies Opening Day Stat Leaders: Hitters
Share this story
Today is the 139th Opening Day in Phillies franchise history. Recently a question from a commenter prompted some searches into baseball-reference.com for the biggest performers in Phils’ Opening Day games.
Yesterday we covered pitchers, and here we’ll look at career leaders in Opening Day hitting, as well as some of the biggest single game performances.
Stats are since 1901, when baseball-reference begins tracking game-level details. It’s worth keeping in mind that these are stats when facing the opposing team’s best pitcher (and in many cases in cold, late March/early April weather).

There are few things on this earth I enjoy more than a good play on words. For me, the almighty pun reigns supreme in terms of the best type of wordplay, but high on the list is the anagram.
For those unfamiliar (and you’ll figure it out pretty quickly down below), an anagram uses the letters in a word or name in order to create a new word or phrase. In this post, the idea for which we aren’t too proud to admit we stole from Twinkie Town, we’re going to see what kind of anagrams we get from the names on the Tigers’ 40-man roster and if any of them perhaps bode well for the season ahead.
