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

 

Also, I had his rookie card.

I have about 10 of each of their rookies but didn’t remember Todd Hollandsworth on my own. Solid player and career

QUESTION #20

Since "caught stealing" became a recorded metric (1920), there have been 13 players who have stolen 35 or more bases in a row without being caught.  Only one has done so since 2010, a former Cleveland Indian at the time.  Who was it?

Raj Davis?

Nope.

Coco? Bourne?

Coco.  Nice call.

I forgot he was also a Red for about a second.

Yeah, the Reds bought him from the Indians. 

QUESTION #21:

 To piggy-back off the previous question, of the thirteen players with 35 or more steals in a row without getting caught, only two of them did it all in the same season.  One was Davey Lopez in 1975.  The other did it in the 2000s with the Phillies.  Who was it?

Ugh....who was fast for the Phillies 20 years ago? Lol

I’m struggling to even name 3 players on the Phillies back then.

I’ll guess Jimmy Rollins

Victorino?

Jimmy Rollins is the correct answer.  Had a stretch in 2001 where he stole 35 bases on 35 attempts.

QUESTION #22:

 Only seven times has a player stolen 6+ bases in a single game, but it's only been done by six players.  Name the MVP, 4x WS champ, and Hall of Famer from the pre-1940s to pull off two 6+ SB games.

HINT: He was guessed once for a previous question in this thread.

Todd?

Eddie Collins? No clue

Cobb my other guess. No clue if those guys won 4 World Series

Eddie Collins? No clue

Damn!  Nice!  I didn't think that would be guessed so quickly!

Collins won 3 World Series with Philly and one with Chicago.  Obviously, could have had another if a bunch of his teammates didn't throw the 1919 Series.

QUESTION #23:

There have been eleven players to play past their 49th birthdays in the Major Leagues.  Only two of them are alive today.  Who are they?

Phil noekro

Niekro

Julio Franco

Your clue about already being guessed led me to Collins

Julio Franco

Minnie still alive?

Niekro went to 47 or 48 I thought

Hoyt Wilhelm? Bartolo 48?

Jamie Moyer?
