July 17, 201412 yr Pete Rose discussion got me to thinking about this... What do these players have uniquely in common? Musial, Jackson, Winfield, Thomas, Steve Finley, Williams, Lee Lacy, Ba Bonds, Schmidt, L Walker, Pete Rose and M Alou.
July 17, 201412 yr Old bald guy that played for the Diamondbacks? Well, he was one of the best hitters and 3B in the game well before he was the old bald guy for the Diamondbacks, but yeah. :lol2:
July 17, 201412 yr There are just some names in Baseball that I think don't need a first name with them...to me Williams is ALWAYS Ted, any other Williams needs their first name listed also.
July 17, 201412 yr I'll try one: What player homered four times in one game against the Reds in the second game of a doubleheader? (part 2) What player scored ahead of the above hitter in all four of the homers? (part 3) Whose record of 13 RBI's in a doubleheader was tied? LRCW, you are correct on the four homers by Mark Whiten of the Cards. He drove in 12 runs in that game and one in game one of the doubleheader. Former Brave Gerald Perry scored on each of Whiten's homers. And LRCW, I know you will remember big Nate Colbert of the Padres. He had 13 ribeyes in a doubleheader against the Braves in the early seventies. I remember being blown away by his performance. The Pads were woeful back then but Colbert had a memorable performance.
July 17, 201412 yr Pete Rose discussion got me to thinking about this... What do these players have uniquely in common? Musial, Jackson, Winfield, Thomas, Steve Finley, Williams, Lee Lacy, Ba Bonds, Schmidt, L Walker, Pete Rose and M Alou. No takers on this one yet?
July 17, 201412 yr What former Red was the first player to make it to MLB that had gone through the Tom Emanski program?
July 18, 201412 yr What former Red was the first player to make it to MLB that had gone through the Tom Emanski program? I know Steady Eddie Taubensee was touted as being part of the Emanski program but are you talking about a player that came up with the Reds?
