The Philadelphia Phillies compete in Major League Baseball as a member club of the National League (NL) East Division. The franchise was created in 1883 as a replacement in the National League for the defunct Worcester Worcesters (1880-1882), from Worcester, Massachusetts.
The team currently plays their home games at Philadelphia's Citizens Bank Park (2004-present). Before that, they played at Veterans Stadium (1971-2003), Shibe Park/Connie Mack Stadium (1891-1893), Baker Bowl/National League Park/Philadelphia Base Ball Grounds (1887-1938), and Recreation Park (1883-1886).
The Phillies have won two World Series championships in the team's history, against the Kansas City Royals in 1980 and against the Tampa Bay Rays in 2008. Additionally, the Philadelphia Phillies have won seven National League pennants in the team's history.
Note: Be aware that in the early years baseball teams used pennants rather than flags, and a host of manufacturer's variants of these pennants and later fan flags were marketed for the Phillies and their fans. They include flags, banners, and pennants too numerous to all be shown here.

The official flag of the Philadelphia Phillies features the team's official logo centered on a red field. The logo is in the shape of a blue baseball diamond, outlined in white, red, and white, with the silhouette of the Liberty Bell in white, having the word "Phillies" superimposed over the silhouette in red cursive script.
The other official flag of the Philadelphia Philles is a very simple one, displaying the team's "P" cap logo in white on a red field.

A number of commemorative flags exist for the Philadelphia Phillies and their fans. Most common among these are the pennants that are awarded to the teams that capture the American League and National League championships, as well as the winners of the annual World Series between the two league pennant winners.

In the case of the Philadelphia Phillies, the flags that fly at their home stadium to celebrate their World Series victories take the form of a red broad pennant, edged with a blue border on the top, bottom, and fly, with the year of the World Series championship in large, white numbers.
Randy Young, 29 April 2019
In Major League Baseball, a team that wins their respective league championship prior to reaching the World Series is said to have "won the pennant." This refers to the original reward for said team, which was the authorization to fly at their home field a pennant denoting the team as the champions. This tradition continues today, with teams that have "won the pennant" flying at their home stadiums pennants representing their historical championships. The National League pennants flown by the Phillies at Citizens Bank Park are essentially a reverse of the World Series pennants, being a blue broad pennant, edged with a red border on the top, bottom, and fly, with the year of the National League championship in large, white numbers.

These popular variants of the American national flag have been produced for all the MLB teams and displayed by their enthusiastic fans. In the canton of the illustrated version here, the red and white stripes remain as usual, but the blue canton has been turned red and the 50 white stars have been overlaid with the team's baseball diamond and Liberty Bell logo. There is a similar version that keeps the blue canton, but replaces the white stripes with blue ones.

There are several varieties of fan flags incorporating any one of the Phillies' logos. The example above features the white "P" on red of the team's cap logo, with a blue bar on the hoist containing the team's name logo in red, fimbriated white.

These examples use the team's name logo. The first shows the word "Phillies" in red cursive script, fimbriated white, on a blue field. The dots over the "i"s in "Phillies" have been replaced by blue stars. The second example uses the same word logo on a red field, but with a baseball being thrown behind and over the logo, a blue streak behind it showing the ball's path.

This example uses the team's baseball diamond logo in a variation on one of the team's official flags. This one places the logo on a blue field, with the hoist end punctuated by three vertical stripes of red-blue-white, mirrored on the fly end with vertical stripes of white-blue-red.

These flags tend to be more popular among NFL football fans, but can also be found for baseball fans. The flags feature the team's colors and logo and declare the area to be part of the "Man Cave" for fans of that team.

For those Philadelphia Phillies fans who own yachts or sailboats and want to display their team loyalty, a separate flag is sold for them. The flag takes the form of a red burgee with dark blue accents and the Phillies' "P" logo near the hoist.

Also available to Phillies fans owning boats and wanting to display their team loyalty afloat, a variety of boat flags are available for them. The flags take the form of either broad pennants or square boat flags as illustrated here. Most have either a cap or team logo near the hoist. Each uses the individual team's colors in their designs.
Note: Because of the small size of these nautical broad pennants. usually about a foot tall (approximately 30.48 centimeters), they have also gained popularity as "golf cart" flags. It should also be noted that a broad pennant, or any other flag shape, is only called a "burgee" if it designates an organized boating club.
