The1902Philadelphia Phillies season was a season in American baseball. The team finished seventh in theNational League with a record of 56–81, 46 games behind thePittsburgh Pirates.
The Phillies held spring training in 1902 inWashington, North Carolina where the team practiced and played exhibition games at the city's race track inside the inclosure.[2] The team journeyed from Philadelphia to Norfolk by boat on the steamer Yemassee, departing the Arch Street wharf on March 22, 1902. From Norfolk the team took the train to Washington. The Phillies made their headquarters at the Hotel Nicholson on Main Street.[3][4] It was the only season the Phillies trained in Washington.
In 1902, the Phillies obtained aninjunction, effective only inPennsylvania, barringNap Lajoie from playing baseball for any team other than the Phillies.[5] The American League responded by transferring Lajoie's contract to theCleveland Indians, then known as the Bronchos and subsequently renamed the "Naps" in Lajoie's honor for several seasons.
