1 game, 1 BB, 1 K. . Drew Carpenter. 36. team. 6. A second round pick by the Phillies in 2006 out of Cal State Long Beach Carpenter never got a hold of a major league job. Bouncing between Lehigh Valley and Philadelphia from 2008-11 Carpenter made his major league debut with the 2008 club on Aug. 27 versus the Mets. Carpenter threw a shutout inning of relief in a 6-3 loss. Philadelphia waived him in September of 2011, and the young righty bounced between eight clubs in three years.

. Andy Tracy. 35. team. 6. A nine-year veteran playing for Montreal, Colorado, and Philadelphia in between minor league stints, Andy Tracy played just 13 games for the Phillies in two seasons as a bench player and infielder. His impact in 2008 was shortlived as a late August call-up at the age of 34. His lone RBI that season came on a sacrifice fly in second game of a double-header against the Mets on Sept. 7, which the Phillies dropped 6-3. Pinch-hitting for reliever Rudy Seanez, Tracy drove in Shane Victorino with a long fly ball to left field. Jimmy Rollins would strikeout with Tadahito Iguchi in scoring position to end the game. Tracy returned for nine games in 2009 and would later join the minor league coaching staff.. 4 games, 1 BB, 1 RBI
