Speaker and Collins had to be about same time, but I don't think that they were ever teammates.

Wow. Only about 5 players had 3000 hits at that time. It's crazy to think that 3 of them were on the same team.

Question #72 (I think?):

Only five Pitcher-Catcher teammates have won the Gold Glove in the same year since 1957.

Two of them did it more than once.

One of those two pairs did it on two separate teams (1 of them is a HOF), both times after 1990.

Name that pair.

Molina/Wainright?

I don’t get the two different teams? The same pitcher catcher combo won gold gloves the same season but did it again on another team? No clue

Welp, that was quick.

Pudge and Kenny did it once on the Rangers and once on the Tigers.

They were the other pair to do it more than once.  But it was with the same ball club both times.

But yeah, Rodgers and Rodriguez did it twice, each time with a separate team.

Yep.  Was there at the end of his career, 2006-2008.  He and Pudge both won it in 2006 with the Tigers (and 2001 was the year with the Rangers).

LOL  I was being sarcastic, but that would be my luckiest correct answer.

So, are these the batting average leaders for 1982, then?  I don't have this card, so I've never looked at it.

I'm guessing Carew and Yount, as well.  Maybe Dawson?  He didn't have a great career average, but he's a HOF guy from that time frame.
