Chapman is perhaps best known for his time with the Philadelphia Phillies, where he played from 1938 to 1945. He was a six-time All-Star during his time with the Phillies and was known for his aggressive style of play. Chapman was a three-time stolen base leader in the National League and won the batting title in 1931 with a .381 batting average. He was also a strong defensive player, winning two Gold Glove awards in his career.

Despite his impressive baseball career, Chapman's legacy is somewhat tarnished by his reputation as a racist. He was known for taunting and verbally abusing Jackie Robinson, the first African American player in the Major Leagues, during Robinson's rookie season in 1947. Chapman's behavior towards Robinson was widely condemned, and it remains a controversial part of his legacy to this day.
