Philadelphia Phillies Phun Phactoids Quiz: How Well Do You Know the 2011 Phils?

So, how closely have you been following the Philadelphia Phillies this season?
Oh, I take it that you know that they’re sporting the best record in all of baseball (82-44 heading into Tuesday night’s home game versus the New York Mets) and are ahead of the Atlanta Braves by a still-comfy 6.5 games.
You can probably recite from memory most of the injuries that have befallen the team again this year, and you know that Citizens Bank Park is always sold out.
But, can you withstand a 14-question multiple choice pop quiz (without reference materials) and still come out in the red? That’s a good color for Phillies fans, of course.
And yes, some of these questions may be easy, but others may challenge you just a bit. And there are a few that may have you screaming: “Who gives a da_n!” Or worse.
All of the questions are focused on this season, and don’t let the players pictured in the slides mislead you in any way. All of the questions consider stats compiled through Monday, August 22 (pre-earthquake, if you prefer).
So please close your books, sharpen your pencils, and get to it.
Good luck, and feel free to post your score in the comments section. Don’t worry; I’ll let you know what your score may indicate about your level of Phillies Phever.
