Wow! You are on fire. Not him but you are almost there1

I think I ran out of of brothers that had a dad in MLB

 

[Rex Racer]

Fuck me, I think I got it. Being a Red Sox fan prevents me from typing his name because If I'm right he is a curse!


Dad was a catcher, right?

 

[Rex Racer]

Dude ranks right up there with Buckyfuckingdent

I will give you an A for effort Rex. But I find it amusing that you only mentioned one of the Alomar brothers.
The mystery player is tied with others as the tallest catcher at 6 feet five inches tall. He and Roberto once played for the Indians at the same time. His name is Sandy Alomar!

Make that Sandy Alomar Jr.

Here is another puzzle. Name the best two pitchers that never won the Cy Young award. Both are in
the hall of fame!

I would have never guessed that he was ROY

the hall of fame!

Nolan Ryan and, um, Cy Young?

Nolan Ryan and, um, Cy Young?

Way to Sportboy. Cy young could not win it since the award came out later. Tossing no hitters was not good enough for Ryan to get the award since it is based on the entire season record.

Who is the only MLB player to be elected to an all star game after he retired? Remember, looking it up is cheating.
Use your memory or knowledge, or just take a guess!

Are you saying this is correct? What about Walter Johnson?

I will say Mike Schmidt or Willie Mays. I know Schmidt retired in the middle of the season but I forget if it was before the all star game and I think Mays may have.

The Cy Young award did not come out until 1956.

Very good! Mike Schmidt is correct!

 

[Cedrique]

The Cy Young award did not come out until 1956.

Oh, ok so it is two guys after 1956?

 

[northeastphillyguy]

Try naming the only pitcher in the hall of fame that never had a losing season during his 10 years as a pitcher.
This can be easy if you put your thinking cap on.

I'm going to go with Whitey Ford

It was a trick Question. Some would not think of naming Cy Young. I think the greatest pitchers since 1956
who entered the hall won the Cy Young award. Except for Ryan.
