RBI Trivia

[superood]

As of 2013, how many RBI players have been inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame?

[superood]

Paul Molitor and Tommy Herr are both notable for TWO reasons.  1., Both are in RBI.  2.,......  Can anyone guess?  Hint: Herr was the last NL player to do it and Molitor was the last AL player to do it.

[ryno]

100 RBI with less than 10 homers?

[superood]

Very good Ryno.  Herr had 8 HR, 110 RBI in 1985.  The Ignitor had 9 HR, 113 RBI in 1996.

[BeefMaster]

I remember that '96 season, with the Twins - I think he might've led the league in hits, and he hit like .340.

Madlock won the batting title in 1980 IIRC

I think herr set the ml record for cocks sucked in a season as well

I think herr set the ml record for cocks sucked in a season as well

think that was Sandberg, while Palmiero and Grace were plugging his wife.

I WENT THERE

[Gantry]

uh oh

[ryno]

For the record it was Dave Martinez. Not grace.  Wife of sandberg was too skinny to be a slump buster and most likely too much of a whore for grace.

Here's some general baseball trivia/knowledge.  John Miller (not the broadcaster), played for the Dodgers and Yankees in the 60's.  He is one of two players in history to hit a HR in his first AND last AB in the majors.  The thing about Miller....those two HRs were the only two he hit in his career.
