    Damn, forgot all about the A's and I had no clue the Angels stadium was that old. Doesn't look it on TV.

    The Twins in 90, I only know that because I looked up triple plays last month when the Dodgers turned one against the Padres.

    Fisk


    now i know you are going to say he is a catcher that never caught the all time leader, but if you do a little of that word game where you take the last word of one statement and make it the first word of a second statement, you should come up with the answer.

    I know Hough was one of them but I don't remember the other two. I'll guess Sutton as one and Eric Gagne as the other? :lol:

    Surprisingly he's 23rd on the list, which the top 5 is as follows:

    1 Robin Yount 337
    2 Wade Boggs 314
    3 Dwight Evans 306
    4 George Brett 303
    T5 Andre Dawson 290
    T5 Bill Buckner 290

    Honestly I was thinking Boggs becasue of the way he used to just bounce the ball off the monster but the other four on that list really surprise me. Bill Buckner??? I wonder how many triples he could have had in the 80's if he had good knees and ankles? :lol:

    what are the four ways you can get to first base with out swinging the bat?
    (bunt counts as a swing)

    Walk, hit by a picth, strike out with a passed ball, and catcher's interference (guess it could happen without swinging the bat). :corn:

    Well you can get there by a balk but that's only if there's three balls which technically just makes it a walk so I guess it's being put in as a pinch runner?
