    Got my first .1% !!!  He's not as obscure a player as you'd think if you knew baseball in the 80's...
    .1 - nice.  I wonder if they will register anything as lower.
    Who was it?

    Ken Brett, Twins and Phillies.  My circle knew Ken because of his better brother George. I remember them having a card together.  We all did.

    Interesting answer, I didn't know his brother played in MLB.
    Your circle.  Doesn't this mean you are asking friends for input in your answers?  :lol:

    Sorry, my circle as kids.  We all collected cards and knew the players.

    Now see, you are close to my age but you didn't know George had a brother who played.  Interesting.

    Fair enough.  I always thought it was cool when brothers played ball.  Niekros, Bretts, Alous, Dimaggios, Letiers, Gwynns, Cansecos to name a few.

    OZZIe Canseco and Chris Gwynn were always enigmatic to me.  Reading about these stars that had younger brothers coming up that were BETTER than them but never came to be...

    Wow, that is awesome.

    I wouldn't think you could use Edwin Jackson and still yet that low a score.  Too many people have memorized his team's and use him.
    Every guy has to be a super rare guess

    My trivia team ended up winning last night because of one of these. I was able to finesse Greg Maddux in for 3 different answers lol.  I just tried today's on the website and failed miserably.

    Fuck....I thought I could match at least with a third and go ultra low with my beloved Redlegs.
    .2
     2
    7!

    The 7 was a member of the Machine....which was my error.  Even though he is old, people know that team.

    Every player sans one was an allstar at one time so I don't know who the popular ones were with this.

    My biggest one I thought of was my first answer and it's 36%.  I then remembered to use previous history teams and the scores became much lower and remembering a certain baseball card and a player on it that depicted one of these very scenarios.

    What sucks is you can't use a Milwaukee or Boston Braves for the Mets or Rockies so it does make you use modern knowledge.

    It has to be an unbroken chain name and I think it will qualify
    See the note

    The reason why you can't use the names I listed is because they weren't around when the Mets and Rockies were born.

    Example.  A player on the Milwaukee braves couldn't have played on the Rockies.  Timeline doesn't work.

    I could use an Expos player with the Mets though and did because that franchise did turn into the Nats.

    What I was getting at is older team names will have zero chance with newer teams most often than not.
