I 92's Baseball Trivia.......Hitting at 33

  • Ironman92
    SINCE 1970 only 6 players have had 2175+ hits at age 33 AND have never played for the Yankees.

    Name those players:
  • Lovejoy1984
    Pete Rose
    Schmidt
    George Brett
    Bonds
  • Ironman92
    Pete Rose is one of them.

    Brett was fairly close.
  • Lovejoy1984
    Paul Molitor?
  • Ironman92
    Not quite...had many injuries costing him many game early in his career.....had a tremendous career after the age of 33
  • dave
    Cobb
    Gwynn
  • Ironman92
    Since 1970.


    Gwynn didn't make it.
  • karen lotz
    Cal Ripken Jr
  • dave
    ahh missed the 68 part.

    Murray
    Biggio
  • Ironman92
    Rose is 1....Cal is a 2nd answer

    I believe Murray and Biggio are no
  • BigAppleBuckeye
    Chipper Jones?
    Ken Griffey Jr?
    Alex Rodriguez?
  • BigAppleBuckeye
    Nevermind Arod, missed the non-Yankee part ...
  • BigAppleBuckeye
    Frank Thomas?
  • Ironman92
    Jr was short as per injuries early in Cincy years

    Chipper...not quite... he's around 2400 hits and nearly 38 years old

    Eddie Murray has to be the closest incorrect answer


    So far......amazingly just Rose and Ripken
  • Al Bundy
    Robbie Alomar?
  • Ironman92
    Alomar is correct.

    So far we have:

    Rose
    Ripken
    Alomar
  • Ironman92
    Frank Thomas walked too much.
  • justincredible
    Kirby Puckett
  • justincredible
    Robin Yount
  • Ironman92
    Puckett is an excellent guess...but incorrect as he wasn't called up until he was 24....he still came close
  • Ironman92
    Yount is answer #4....he made it by a mile


    Still need 2 more answers.
  • Ironman92
    AH....2 pages already...it's good to be back in season!
  • Ironman92
    Since 1970 there are 6 answers.....so far we have:

    Rose I believe made it by the least of these 4

    Rose
    Yount
    Ripken
    Alomar
