The obvious choice would be home run. I'll say strike out.
MLB Trivia
- Thread starter panther
- Start date
They all struck out is correct in their first AB.
I leave the next question for someone else.
I leave the next question for someone else.
1988 World Series game 1 - Who was in the on deck circle when Dennis Eckersley walked Mike Davis with two outs and the bases empty in the bottom of the ninth?
I remember that it was the pitchers slot in the order. I think that it was infielder Mike Anderson that was in the circle before Gibby gimped out to hit. I could be wrong, my memory isn't what it used to be.
Kirk Gibson
Strikeout
Bob answered it.
Plus was informed that the Smith brothers are not related. It was just a saying thing with those two as bros.
Well done. His first name was Dave but you've got the right guy. Light hitting SS with no power. Great move by Lasorda. Eckersley knew Mike Davis had had a terrible year for the Dodgers, but he'd previously had some good power numbers playing for the A's, so seeing Anderson on deck he pitched very carefully to Davis and walked him. Then Anderson was pulled and Gibson unexpectedly came up, and the rest is history

So I had the wrong player on the on deck circle.Just the hitter AB.
Great question.

Since no one got the rest of the answers to the Manager of the Year questions I'll give it. Chicago White Sox had 5 managers win and the other team never to have one was the Mets.
The NY Yankees have a tradition for having their players clean cut. Hair well cropped and limited mustaches. Only 1 player had a beard in a Yankee uniform on a baseball card. Name him.

You trumped me. I had never seen that card before.
May 1, 1991 was a historic day. One player broke a lifetime record and another established a standing lifetime record mark. Both are Hall of Famers. What were these 2 events?

I think one of them was Ricky Henderson breaking the all time stolen base record.
Was that Cesar Tovar??? I think he did it in the late '60's-maybe '69??
I have 2 trivia's and 1 question.
Who is the only AL swith hitter who hit 2HR's in the same inning?
Who are the only 2 battery mates that are credited for 1 grand slam each in the same game?
Q: Has there ever been a no hitter/perfect game thrown by multiple pictures in a single game. I do nothink it has ever happened.
