QUESTION #19

Mickey Mantle is probably the best switch-hitting slugger ever, but he only played in the AL.  What player holds the NL record for most home runs in a season AND a career as a switch hitter?

From '92 to' 96, a Dodgers player won the NL ROY each of the five years.

Name those Dodgers rookies.

That's four of them, yep.  That's pretty close to the order, too (Piazza and Mondesi might be switched, but I'm not sure).

One left.

Beltre was later I think...Pedro didn’t win before Karros I don’t think. Can’t think of pitchers?

I remember it because they broke their own record with him.

 

Also, I had his rookie card.

Todd Hollendsworth? Only think it’s him because I know he won ROY from his time in Cleveland. Not sure who he started on or what year though. Know he had a long stretch with LAD.
