Baseball Trivia

[VolunteerGeneral]

I thought I`d start this thread in case anyone has some trivia they`d like to test the knowledge of other Plus members with.

 

I`ll start by asking what Major League player had the most hits in the 90`s?

 

 

btw...use the honor system. No fair trying to google the answer. If you know it great, but if not take a guess without trying to look it up. Anyone can look answers up.

The most logical answer would be either Gwynn or Boggs. But it seems I remember at the end of the decade Mark Grace and Rafael Palmero battling it out for most something in the decade with Grace coming out on topand both had a lot of hits. Not sure, Since Boggs heyday was more in the 80's, I'll go with Gwynn.

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.
