Theme Teams: All-Time Giants/Phillies Team

Given that both these franchises date back to 1883, it will come as no surprise that there have been literally hundreds of players who have worn both uniforms. Here are the best of them, fashioned, for your convenience, into one nifty imaginary squad. The Giants played their first couple of seasons as the Gothams. The Phillies changed from the Quakers in 1890 and briefly called themselves the Blue Jays 1943-44.
