Adolfo Emilio Phillips López (December 16, 1941 in Bethania, Panama), is a former Major League Baseball outfielder who played from 1964 to 1972. He would play for the Philadelphia Phillies, Chicago Cubs, Montreal Expos, and Cleveland Indians. While with the Cubs, on June 11, 1967 in the second game of a doubleheader at Wrigley Field, he hit three home runs in the Cubs' 18-10 victory over the New York Mets. The home runs came in three consecutive at-bats; not until Tuffy Rhodes in 1994 would a Cub hit three home runs in a game at Wrigley in three consecutive trips to the plate.
