2011 Chachi #59 RBI Leaders - Ryan Howard & Raul Ibanez

For the sixth season in a row, Ryan Howard drove in over 100 runs, joining Mike Schmidt (9 times), Del Ennis (6 times), Ed Delahanty (7 times) and Sam Thompson (7 times) as the only sluggers to reach that plateau at least six times in franchise history.

The last person not named Ryan Howard to lead the team in RBIs was Pat Burrell with 117 in 2005.  Howard's ruptured Achilles tendon, suffered on the final pitch of the team's season, could jeopardize his streak in 2012.

Here's the team's top ten in runs batted in for 2011:

1.  Ryan Howard - 116
2.  Raul Ibanez - 84
3.  Jimmy Rollins - 63
4.  Shane Victorino - 61
5.  Placido Polanco - 50
6.  John Mayberry, Jr. - 49
7.  Chase Utley - 44
8.  Carlos Ruiz - 40
9.  Hunter Pence - 35
10.  Ben Francisco - 34
