Wouldn't a pro debut with the Phillies' organization necessarily imply that Player B played in 1927 with a Phillie affiliated team? The question would be what is done with a player who played for an independent minor league team in his pro debut in 1927 and then made his major league debut for the Phillies in 1929. My guess would be that the answer depends on whether the minor league is in the game in 1927, but I'm also interested in hearing from someone who knows.
