Philadelphia Phillies
1982 with the Phillies looked a lot like 1981 with the Astros did for Roberts. If anything, he played even less due to a couple of stints on the disabled list. He played in 28 games, with just 6 hits in 33 at bats. He again started the 1983 season on the disabled list, and was released on May 17 without having played that year, ending his playing career.

Famous quotes containing the word philadelphia:
“All the oxygen of the world was in them.
All the feet of the babies of the world were in them.
All the crotches of the angels of the world were in them.
All the morning kisses of Philadelphia were in them.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
