I’ve got one no one will get. Who was the first IF to join the 30/30 club? Hint: he’s friggin awesome
Oof this is a lot tougher than I thought it was going to be. I know Joe Carter and Howard Johnson both had 30/30 seasons in ‘87. Johnson played 3B for sure, and I think Carter might’ve played 1B that season more than the outfield. Am I close??
I believe you might be right about Carter. 1988 was the year Canseco became the first 40/40 player (40 Hrs and 42 steals)

Hint this IF made the club three times. He and a teammate also were the first and only to ever be in the club as teammates in the same season
Howard Johnson it is! The teammate was definitely Straw. I loved watching HoJo at the plate back in the day! Switch hitter and threat at the dish and on the base paths. He struck out what was considered a lot at the time but in today’s game you wouldn’t even bat an eye about those strikeout numbers

Yessssssssss WTG and what I wouldn’t give for a HOJO milestone card

Here we go with that switch hitting hotel chain again LOL

You are correct. Who did he pass to become the all time single season record holder for strikeouts? And how many did that person have?

It's from back in the day when men were men and pitched well over 300 innings in a season. In a 4 man rotation to boot.

That was it then. Duh. Sandy Koufax. That game seven call was the first time I heard Vin Scully refer to a change up as a “Soap bubble”
