Philip Daniel Bradley (born March 28, 1886) was an American baseball player in the pre-Negro leagues playing mostly as a catcher. Most of his seasons were played for the Brooklyn Royal Giants.[2]
Sportswriter Harry Daniels named Bradley to his 1909 "All-American Team" saying Bradley was presently "the second best catcher in colored base ball" second only to Bruce Petway. Although, Daniels noted that Bradley was a better hitter than Petway.[3]
