The OOSL AA Philadelphia Phillies are controlled by Edward Mortimer.
These Philadelphia Phillies are a new franchise as of 1999. They are not directly related to the old OOSL National League Philadelphia Phillies Franchise. With the formation of the OOSL American Association at the end of 1998, and the expansion of human owners into both the OOSL and the OOSL AA the old Philadelphia Phillies franchise identity was designated for a new OOSL American Association team. The Philadelphia Phillies franchise name was won by the owner of the OOSL American League Philadelphia Athletics -- Edward Mortimer. The old National League Philadelphia Phillies (now Human-owned for the first time) were moved to Pittsburgh to become the new OOSL National League Pittsburgh Pirates Franchise. To complete the Pittsburgh-Philadelphia Connection, the Minor League affiliate of the American League Philadelphia Athletics and the National League Philadelphia Phillies had been the Pittsburgh Crawfords -- and that part of the team's player roster that was owned by the Amercan League Athletics became the first player roster of the American Association Philadelphia Phillies. As a point of note, the OOSL Minor Leagues were disbanded to make way for the OOSL AA, and the other owner of the Pittsburgh Crawfords (Michael Mortimer) decided to release his half of the Crawfords roster to AA Free Agency instead of taking them to his AA Toledo Blue Stockings Franchise.
This page and the links from this page display the history of the American Association Philadelphia Phillies and the former OOSL Minor League Pittsburgh Crawfords.
