RE: Baseball Trivia - Phogge - 04-24-2020
Hentgen for the Blue Jays.
Paul Pettit. Have his 1954 or ‘55 Topps card.
I think the ‘46 Red Sox losing to the Cards in seven. Bad Series for Williams.

Who was the first catcher to be rookie of the year ?
RE: Baseball Trivia - Phogge - 04-24-2020
I misread your Cy Young question.
Ceregino is correct. What did he do to earn a living life long?
First catcher to be ROY? Campanella? Berra?
RE: Baseball Trivia - BobK - 04-24-2020
I thought sure Campy but Johnny Bench
I have a good friend who was a good friend of Ed C but don’t recall his profession. Police ?

Ceregino became a teacher then a school administrator. He spoke to a teaching seminar at State in my fifth year. Engaging guy.
Ken Dekker signed for $100,000 out of high school at SI in the late 50’s. Never made the Yankees but invested his bonus in real estate. Did well.

Buster. Johnny Bench. Carlton Fisk.
RE: Baseball Trivia - BobK - 04-25-2020
Bench was the first

So Buster and Bench only catchers to win both ROY and MVP. (I’m assuming Bench won an MVP. Although Little Joe may have got in the way). Buster only catcher to win ROY, MVP, Batting Title and Gold Glove.
RE: Baseball Trivia - BobK - 04-25-2020
Bench MVP twice
Name the Manager who Managed Mark McGwire
On two different teams

That was actually one of your easier trivia questions. Not a fan of Mr. LaRussa.
