I can't say anything. Yesterday I called out the whole board for not guessing Brooks Robinson on a question about third basemen, only to be informed someone guessed him two pages back and I told him it was wrong.

OK I'll see that and raise you me forgetting that Arraez actually did win last year also....in the other league!

Me right now:

AL in 2022, NL in 2023...I have to think that's never happened before, consecutive titles in both leagues

Actually I didn't really call anyone out. I just wasted people's time by continuing to give hints and soliciting guesses for a question that was already answered.


Nevertheless, one last Opening Day question before the season starts---Which Starting Pitcher had the most consecutive Opening Day Starts (14). Hint: It didn't happen 100 years ago like you would expect.
