Default Baseball trivia question of the day

Posted By: Eric Brehm

Here is a good one:

Name the four major leaguers who have hit 200 or more home runs for two different teams during their careers. Only one is still active. No fair looking it up!

Bonds, Maguire, F. Robinson.

Sure the final one must be more "vintage"

* McGwire is correct: 363 Athletics, 220 Cardinals (total 583)
* Bonds is incorrect: 176 Pirates, 558 Giants (total 734 through 2006)
* Frank Robinson is incorrect: 324 Reds, 179 Orioles, 19 Dodgers, 50 Angels, 14 Indians (total 586)

I would have guessed Bonds and Frank Robinson also. One of the four players is from the pre-war era.

Palmeiro must be one.

This didn't seem like it would be so tough. Good question.

I seem to remember something about him doing a 200/200 thing not long ago, but can't remember what it was. Or was it stolen bases?

* Piazza almost: 177 Dodgers, 0 Marlins, 220 Mets, 22 Padres (419 total through 2006)

After the depression decimated the A's team, one can only imagine the agony Mack must have gone through, to sell Jimmie to the Sox. He hung on to him as long as he could, and I believe he was the last player to be traded, from the great series teams. At least he didn't sell him to the Yankees. Sheeesh...that would have been something. Anyone know if the Yankees were trying to get Jimmie ? And if not, why? They certainly had the dough.

Edited to add: I know they had Lou, but Jimmie could have played several positions. In hind sight, maybe having Lou was enough.

Has hit as many homers for the Red Sox -- 236 as he did for the Indians.
