Have a hint, but could very well give it away too easily. So holding off for now.

haha, I did F up the question. Stupid Ryno had TWO seasons of 100. Anyway, there is one more. The year he had over 100, he actually LED the league in RBI.

Brooks is actually the one I was thinking of, but Alomar also fits the 1x also (amazingly, both with the Tribe). This excel didnt sort him for some reason. Im going back to old school typing into Notepad lol.

That question was solid, and ruined by a missed player, typo in original question and an excel missing a player lol.

Ah YES! Ok, now it makes more sense why this was all screwy. Excel did work, but I only had enough room for the 6 players and didnt sort by year, so Brooks was taking up a space reserved for Alomar. Ok, Im happy that was the issue. 

Good job everyone. Im just guessing the rest of the night lol

You got it.  Helton managed over 100 XBHs in 2000 and 2001.

The advent of the humidore kept him from 3 seasons in a row!

Question #80:

Three Hall of Fame batters finished their career with 15 or fewer triples.  Their rookie years were all within a six-year span, post-1960.

Who are they?

Thome actually had a shockingly high amount. Distinctly remember him hitting his 25th triple versus Tigers when he was on Twins.

Edgar seems accurate since he didn’t have many hits, was slow as shit and didn’t play very long. So who else started from early 80s to early 90s?
