2 – Bob Boone (1972 – 1981)

While Boone certainly was not a hitting catcher, he was a three-time All-Star, two-time Gold Glove award winner and 1980 World Series champion. Boone was above the league average throwing out base stealers in seven of his ten seasons with the Phillies. Boone hit .285 over his best three year stretch from 1977 – 1979 and ranks third in hits, third in games, fourth in RBI and fifth in doubles among catchers in franchise history.
