Were there 2 Philadelphia baseball teams at the same time?
Nope. There were the Philadelphia Athletics and Phillies, but they were at completely different times. I beg to differ. The Phillies have been there since 1883. The Athletics got an American league charter in 1901 and played there until moving to Kansas City in 1955. Subsequently, that franchise moved to Oakland in 1968. So yes, there were two baseball teams in Philadelphia at the same time.

Named after various 1800's teams of the same name, the Philadelphia Athletics were an original American League team in 1901, winning five World Series and another pennant in a year the World Series wasn't played. They moved to Kansas City and became the Kansas City Athletics in 1955 (and long time manager Connie Mack saw them play there just before his death); and moved again, to California, becoming the Oakland Athletics in 1968. Catfish Hunter pitched a perfect game that year for Oakland, thus establishing them in their new location quickly, before their string of World Series victories in the early 70's.
