Let's revisit my 20th trivia set from October 2013.
See how many answers you can get before I post them here tomorrow.
2. Ironically enough, the only two players to hit over 40 homers in one season while failing to drive in 100+ runs were teammates and accomplished this feat in the same season. Who were they, and what year?
3. On a similar note: Hank Aaron was tied with another player with the lowest amount of runs batted in with anyone hitting 30+ homers in a season during the '70's, with 77. Who was the other slugger?
4. Who was the only catcher to post double digit numbers in doubles, triples and homers in the same season during the decade?
5. This pitcher had a respectable 14-13 record for the last place Mariners with a 3.77 E.R.A. and two shutouts in 1979. However the following year he ended the season with a 1-16 record with a 7.28 E.R.A. Who was it?
***SPOILER ALERT! ANSWERS BELOW:
1. Jim Kern, Texas Rangers.
2. Hank Aaron and Davey Johnson of the Atlanta Braves in 1973. Aaron hit 40 homers with 96 R.B.I.'s while Johnson hit 43 homers with 99 R.B.I.'s.
3. Rick Monday, Chicago Cubs. 1977. He hit 32 home runs with his 77 runs batted in.
4. Darrell Porter, Kansas City Royals. 1979. He had 23 doubles, 10 triples and 20 home runs.
5. Mike Parrot.
