6. T.J. Bohn is another player on the 2008 club few remember, mainly because he only played 14 games with the team. The Phillies picked Bohn off waivers from the Atlanta Braves in 2007 and brought him up in April of the championship season. Bohn’s lone hit came in a 9-5 victory in Colorado after entering the game as a pinch-runner for Pat Burrell in the eighth inning. After scoring on a Carlos Ruiz two-run double, Bohn drove in Chris Coste and Jayson Werth to go up by four in the ninth. The outfielder hit free agency three days after the parade and played two years of Independent League ball before retiring.. 14 games, 2 H. . TJ Bohn. 38. team

6. After being released by the Cubs on April 27 Les Walrond was picked up in free agency by Philadelphia in early May. A 13th round draft pick of the Cardinals in 1998, Walrond made six appearances out of the bullpen for Philadelphia in their 2008 season. Walrond’s lone win that season was the final game of the season against Washington one day after the team clinched their second-consecutive division crown. After Kyle Kendrick was knocked out after four innings allowing three runs Walrond pitched two shutout innings with four strikeouts to win the 92nd game of the year.. 6 games, 10.1 IP, 12 K. . Les Walrond. 37. team
