The pitcher was part of one of the greatest 4 man rotations ever

Gotta be one of the Orioles. Palmer?

Palmer in the 70’s. I think Morris is the correct answer for the 80’s.

Murphy? If not him I'll go with Schmidt. My recollection is they were pretty neck and neck on this one

You’re good Schmidt then Murphy
What pitcher won the most games in the 1950s? Name his teams. :)

I would say Warren Spahn - but I'm guessing that's incorrect since he only played on one team (unless the Boston Braves and Milwaukee Braves count as 2).
Also played for the Mets & Giants - but not in the '50s.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2025 -
BobK - 06-25-2025
It was time for a trick question. Yes Spahn yes Boston and Milwaukee
I saw him pitch for SF
Last one. Who hit the most HRs in the 1950s?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2025 -
skip75 - 06-25-2025
Mantle & Mays both hit a lot, although both didn't quite play the entire decade.
I'll guess the Mick.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2025 -
BobK - 06-25-2025
Mays in the Army most of 52 all of 53. I guessed Mante. But it’s neither

Aaron comes to mind, but his career HR total consisted of good, but not great season totals over an extremely long productive career.
My guess, knowing the Mantle is incorrect, is big muscular Ted Kluszewski - known for cutting the sleeves off his Reds uniforms.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2025 -
BobK - 06-25-2025
Not Big Klu not Aaron
Hint he played in two cities like Spahn
RE: Sports trivia thread 2025 -

Eddie Mathews of the Boston/Milwaukee Braves?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2025 -
BobK - 06-25-2025
My 2nd guess but no.

If not Mays, Matthews or Aaron or an Athletic or Oriole (none come to mind), it had to be a Dodger. How about Duke Snider or Gil Hodges.
