I 92's Baseball Trivia......K/BB
-
Ironman92Who are the two all-time leaders in strikeouts and walks AND have never had 100+ strikeouts or walks in a season.
Need the strikeout answer and the walk answer. -
Azubuike24My first thought was Barry Larkin. He was always near the top of MLB in toughest to strikeout but he was still a good contact hitter as he hit almost .300 for his career.
-
Laley23Barry Bonds for Ks
-
Laley23Babe Ruth for Ks.
Bonds had ONE season (his first) with over 100 -
Ironman92Bonds....like Eddie Murray went over in his very first season by just a few....Bonds whiffed 102 times his 1st season
excellent guess -
Laley23My first thought for BBs is Manny, but it probably is a person who isnt playing (aka a few extra years)
-
Ironman92Larkin is incorrect...need a little more longevity...plus he was too hard to fan....need those 85-99 whiff a year guys who played forever.
-
Ironman92Babe Ruth led the league in whiffs 5 times....but never eached 100 and is NOT the answer.....but another good guess.
-
Laley23Hank Aaron played forever and to my knowledge never Ked or BBed a whole lot. Maybe he is the answer to both lol.
-
Laley23
damn! I JUST looked up his stats after that guess. I thought I had it nailed when I saw the 5 bolded Ks without it being 100 lol.Ironman92 wrote: Babe Ruth led the league in whiffs 5 times....but never eached 100 and is NOT the answer.....but another good guess. -
Ironman92Manny had 100 1 time.....another solid guess
-
Ironman92laley got Hank Aaron on the walks......never fanned 100 times either....but there are a few guys above him
-
Laley23
lol, I knew that as he is my favorite player (or one of), but I thought you might be going with a trick question with the "+" sign meaning 100+ and 100 was still good. lolIronman92 wrote: Manny had 100 1 time.....another solid guess -
Laley23Pudge for Ks
-
Ironman92Pudge is the K winner by edging out Carl Yastremski by 3
On a sidenote Pudge said he wanted to play 3 or 4 more years.....good god. -
Laley23I92, I was just thinking about this today, but you plan on doing the "Top 10 hitters in MLB" thing again?
-
Ironman92I've been planning it......track season wears me down to no end....it is over for my kids after regionals so I have a moment to breathe a little.
Look for it Thursday......it'll be tough this year IMO -
Azubuike24I think I mis-understood the question. Larkin was a dumb guess.
-
darbypitcher22I'm gonna take a wild stab and say Lou Gherig, just because I'm pretty sure he never struck out more than 100 times in a season
-
Ironman92The answer for most career whiffs without ever getting 100 in a season is Pudge Rodriguez
The answer for most career walks without ever getting 100 in a season in Hank Aaron -
Ironman92Gehrig is way under 1,000 career whiffs I think
-
Laley23Agree. I think a lot of the young guns that people had up last year wont get a single vote. I think Adam Jones, Justin Upton, and some others snagged quite a bit, and they are really struggling this year.
Of course, my boy Miggy will get his fair share! But thats a given since hes gonna pull down the triple crown this year -
