Name these two teams.
1. This team had 4 pitchers who already had won 200 games, plus another pitcher who became a HOFer and another pitcher who was their best starter. 2. This team had 5 pitchers who had won or would go on to win 200 games.

Not the one I had in mind but good. Mine requires another HOF pitcher and another pitcher who was their best starter.

Excerpts from the attached article . . .
Eddie Murray's the eighth man. When he broke in, Brooks Robinson was still playing. And when Robinson broke in, Bob Feller was still playing. And when Feller broke in, Rogers Hornsby was still playing. And when Hornsby broke in, Honus Wagner was still playing. And when Wagner broke in, Cap Anson was still playing. And when Anson broke in, Dickey Pearce was still playing. And when Pearce broke in, Doc Adams was still playing. Adams played for the Knickerbocker club in the first organized game of baseball in 1846, number one of the eight men whose careers cover the 152 seasons since. B.J. Upton played with Fred McGriff who played with Phil Niekro who played with Warren Spahn who played with Ernie Lombardi who played with Jack Quinn who played with Willie Keeler who played with Jim O'Rourke who played with George Wright who started at shortstop for the first all-professional team, the 1869 Cincinnati Reds. http://www.battersbox.ca/article.php...50220021202197 Last edited by scotgreb; 07-22-2015 at 01:36 PM.

Team no. 2 from the second trivia question is still unidentified. Perhaps Dr. Frank wants to redeem himself?

If you take out the teammate requirement, and substitute a played against one, you get this question, not difficult but still pretty amazing. Name a pitcher who pitched to both a player who started in 1939 and a player who retired in 2007, 68 years apart.

Jim Kaat, 1959-1983 (Senators in '59-60, Cardinals in '80-'83) Julio Franco, 1982-2007 (broke in with Phillies in '82) Don't know for a fact that Kaat faced either Williams or Franco, but I don't know who else whose careers overlapped. |
