I watched a game there yesterday and saw 7 hit in one game. One was a no doubter. The rest stay in most parks.

Bolivar advances to championship game with 18-11 victory over Liberty. Bolivar hit 5 home runs including grand slam and 3 run home run by Ervin. Marbury hit 2 home runs for Liberty. Bolivar has handed Liberty 3 of their 9 losses this year. Liberty faces Lexington in elimination game today with winner playing Bolivar tommorrow in championship (1st game and if necessary game both tommorrow).

It was 2. Just seems odd with 740+ home runs to have won only 2 home run titles.

What about the year he hit 73 /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

If you watched Sunday night Baseball tonight you should know this one. Babe Ruth won 12 Home Run titles in his career and Hank Aaron only won 4. How many did Bonds win? And the guy with the most hits in the 80's was listed in VG's question in the thread above.

Lexington and South Side play at 2:30 today. Liberty and Bolivar are in finals of winner's bracket, play Monday at 2:00 at Lexington--early start time due to graduation Monday night.

Greetings District 12AA guy here Since we are in different parts of the state that hook up for regionals and really don't know each other (which is different from most region tourneys) thought I'd drop by and see what was going on in 11 AA. Are you saying since Harpeth won regular season they are the #1 seed for regional and the district tournament determines the runner up only? How far along is didtrict? In 12AA Liberty and Bolivar have advanced to finals of winners bracket. Liberty, Bolivar, South Side and Lexington finished in a 4 way tie for first and are all pretty evenly matched team and any could still come out of district. The Liberty/Bolivar winner will make region since that will put them in championship game and guarantee 1st or 2nd. Lexington was upset by Camden in 1st round and now South Side and Lexington play an elimination game Saturday. Liberty/Bolivar game is scheduled for Monday with loser playing Tuesday and winner playing winner of Tuesday's game in championship Wednesday.

Every time I used to watch the old Detroit Tigers play and Kaline play play the announcers almost always at some point would say that Kaline never spent a day in the minor leagues (that's really all I remember about Kaline). Knowing that Yount began his career at a very young age and Winfield was drafted by 3 different professional sports, don't know anything about the beginning of the others careers, but I'm going to guess they none of them played in minor leagues. It's probably either that or some sort of age thing. Sticking with the VG theme, What player had the most hits in the 80's?

Aaron's career ended in mid 70's so it would not be him. I looked up Reggie's career stats and he hit 292 in the 70's so that would be incorrect. I will not offer a guess since I cheated, but it appears as if his name might have been mentioned in an earlier post. Can I count Reggie's post season Home Runs? If you thrown in his "October" Home runs, he probably comes out on top.

That's always tough when you go by decades to remember who played their whole career in that decade. Being a child of the 70's (although some of it is a little hazy), how many guesses do I get. The first name that popped in my head was Reggie, I know he burst on the scene early in the 70's and lasted the decade and hit a lot of Dingers. The 70's was also Big Red Machine days and Bench and Perez played most of the decade and left the yard a few times. Pops Stargell Pirates won WS in 71 and 79 (and he was MVP in 79) so he lasted the decade and hit a lot of dingers. Schmidt I think came on in mid 70's so he is probably out. Frank Robinson didn't make it through the 70's so he's probably out. Can't think of anyone else. 296, different time back then, that's about 6 years work now. A Rod and Bonds and maybe others have probably surpassed that in this decade. Oh, yeah I forgot to answer the question. How many guesses do I get. So, I'll guess Reggie, Bench, Pops and Perez. OK--REGGIE?

Usually, in any double elimination tournament you have to get to the appropriate number of teams in upper (winner's bracket) to get down to 2 for a championship game--16, 8, 4 ,2 ,1. Since there are only 5 teams in district the first order of business is to make it 4 teams. So basically # 1, 2 and 3 draw a bye and 4 and 5 play. In a 6 team district 2 teams would draw byes, in a 7 team district 1 team draws a bye. In a 8 team district there would be no byes and then you would have your 1/8, 2/7, 3/6 and 4/5 games to get to where a 5 team district is after playing just the 4/5 game. Some districts use single elimination play-in games (I think this is the decision of each district). 13AA is probably a 7 team district with only top seed getting a bye. In a 5 team district there is no 7 seed to play the 2 seed or 6 seed to play the 3 seed, so they basically have byes also.

And Halle Berry for a while, also. NL West and East with BRaves 1997 Cleveland Indians 2000 Yanks 2002 A's I believe in one of many years Rod Carew won the batting title, he did not hit a home run. If not him, probably someone from the dead ball era, which was even before my time.

Hint--Remember the Braves played in both the NL West and NL East in the 90's.

What player has played on division winners in 5 of 6 divisions. Hint: Never played on a NL Central division winning team.

Runner is awarded 3 bases.

Liberty, South Side, Bolivar and Lexington tie for first. Liberty wins tiebreaker (runs given up, I think) is #1 seed and draws a bye and Plays winner of Tuesday Lexington/Camden game on Thursday. South Side and Bolivar Play McNairy and Chester County Tuesday. Not sure who plays who, but the 2 winners will meet. Tuesday's games are at home field of higher seed (South Side, Bolivar and Lexington). The rest of the tournament will be played in Lexington. If top seeds win, it will be Liberty/Lexington and South Side/Bolivar. That's all the heresay I have heard. Anyone feel free to add information or correct any of my information--or a full tournament schedule with game times would be great.

Saying USJ would beat Huntington 10 out of 10 is ridiculous. Huntington is obviously a fine team and capable of beating USJ. They are comparable to the South Side team that beat USJ last week and Huntington beat this week. Saying USJ is a better team and would win more than Huntington in a 10 games series is a reasonable opinion. Saying 10 out of 10, while always possible, is not a reasonable opinion. Both teams should play deep into May.

Yanks are off today, so Albert keeps his name in record book with A Rod with 14 April homers. Also I think A Rod came up a little short on RBI recors for April. A great month by A Rod and the Yankees are a mess--the guy can't catch a break (except when he goes to the bank).

Very good, Mr McGoo. Palmer pitched in all 6 World Series the Orioles played in from 1966 to 1983 and had WS wins in the 60's, 70's and 80's.

Who is the only player to play in all the World Series his team has ever played in (minimum 5 WS)? In case that one's a little tough, who is the only pitcher to win WS games in 3 different decades? The answer to both questions is the same.

But they flopped in the playoffs /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> /smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" />

This proves all you Brave fans are Bandwagon jumpers /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> When did old Knucksie playin the World Series--I know not with the Braves and i don't remember any of his late stops ending in the WS.

Bolivar, Liberty and South Side have now completed district schedule at 9-3. If Lexington defeats Camden in their last district game, there is a 4 way tie. There is no head to head tiebreaker, the word I have been told is the tiebreaker is runs given up. In this case, it appears Liberty wins the tiebreaker and would be #1 seed. As always, the above is based on heresay and speculation and should in no way be confused with information from someone who has any actual knowledge.

Correct--Foster hit 52 in 77. One of 4 MVP's on that team that won 6 MVP's between 70 and 77. Bench in 70 and 72, Rose in 73, Morgan in 75 and 76 and Foster in 77. For you Cardinal fans 2 Cardinals won MVP's in the 70's. Keith Hernandez and Willie Stargell were Co-MVP's in 79 and a slow footed catcher better known as Yankees Manager Joe Torre hit over 360 in 71 and claimed MVP honors. Big Cecil Fielder hit 50 in 90. 16 times in the 90's there was a 50 Home Run season and 12 times already since 2000.

I through his name in, Don't I get 4 quesses /tongue.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":P" border="0" alt="tongue.gif" /> Who is the only person to hit 50+ Home Runs in a season in the 70's? How many people hit 50+ Home Runs in the 80's?
