Dave Philley holds his Baltimore Orioles "Most Valuable Player" trophy, awarded in 1955 for leading the club in hitting with a .299 batting average. He still holds the major league record for nine straight pinch-hits. In 1961, he had 24 pinch-hits in 72 at-bats, which is still an American League record.
