The Angels?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-29-2022
Pirates
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 03-29-2022
Didn’t the Pirates have their first winning season in years in 2018 or 2019?

Pirates went 82-79 in 2018.

Correct, the Angels haven't had a winning season since 2015, which is remarkable given that they've run high payrolls, and had the best player in the game as well as last year's MVP.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 03-29-2022
Hey Bobbbb... Baseball Ref lists the 24 best players for each team. I just looked at Pittsburg and they have Wagner at #1 and Clemente next.
You saw Clemente at Seals and CP and when you were a kid you saw Wagner (not Leon) play. What do you think?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-29-2022
Clemente and no only saw Leon lol
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 03-29-2022
In 2002 John Lackey of the Angels became only the second rookie pitcher to start and win Game 7 of the World Series. Who was the first?
Who was the first pitcher to win three game in the same World Series?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Giants - 03-29-2022
3 wins (all shutouts) - Christy Mathewson
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 03-29-2022
Great guess Giants but nope.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 03-29-2022
1903 First WS:
Deacon Phillipe won three. Same series Bill Dineen won three but Deacon was first.
Babe Adams (Pirates) was the first rookie to start and win Game Seven. 1909 Pirates.

RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Giants - 03-29-2022
Henderson - #24.
I didn’t know EcK’s number so I looked it up. What I discovered (in addition to his #) is the A’s have not retired any numbers from their Philadelphia-era. Weird. You would think Connie Mack would have had an honorary designation (like Walter Haas) or that Al Simmons (among other players) would have had their numbers retired.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 03-29-2022
Or Bobby Shantz, the smallest great pitcher nobody today knows about.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-29-2022
Yaz 8 for the Red Sox

It's really interesting. The Philadelphia Athletics had some of the greatest players in baseball history play for them: Lefty Grove, Jimmie Foxx, Eddie Collins, Mickey Cochrane; but evidently the Oakland policy is that that the franchise's history begins with their move to Oakland, and that the Philadelphia and Kansas City eras are a separate thing.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Phogge - 03-29-2022
And don't forget those A's who rode the KC/NYC shuttle to give the Yanks a little extra for the stretch runs in the 50's.
Bobby Shantz, Suitcase Simpson. Jerry Lumpe..................
