For a long time, I remember the single season HR record for a SS by a Phillie was held by Granny Hamner. This is really only in my memory because Dickie Thon was trying to break that record back in the not so glorious year of 1989. I was lucky enough to purchase this card from Check out My Cards for a decent price, so I thought it would be a compelling starting point for a new series: "All-time Phillies by Position"All-Time Phillies Shortstops According to Me With No Prior Research (name/years at SS on Phillies)

despised Juan Bell back then. and I don't think I could of been able to come up with his first name if somebody put me on the spot b4 you brought back to the fore.
I'm assuming Desi Relaford is #498?
