Terrific baseball quiz by George Will (link)

Started out really strong, got the first 18 right, but fell off a bit in the second half. I liked the questions with multiple people per answer. That allowed me to cancel out various answers as I knew one guy was definitely not right. I think I got all of those questions right because of that. Probably guessed on 4 or 5 of the answers I got right but I was able to narrow it down a bit. Alot of the questions were right in my wheelhouse of baseball knowledge. Questions about 1990s MLB or home runs season and career totals? Yes please

The Jackie’s questions was the only one that was stupid. Why throw in people that have nothing to do with baseball?

I thought the Jackie question was funny

I was almost tempted to pick the Jackie Gleason answer, just because.

Jackie Jensen is the answer to some other varied trivia questions having to do with his also scoring a touchdown in the 1949 Rose Bowl.

I was able to read the questions using “Show Reader”, but that’s it.

Thank you! Nice of ya.

I didn’t realize it was multiple-choice.

You can use a fake email

Some of my usuals were taken, so I had to try a few. I think I used myemail@myemail.com or something. Add a few letters to the local-part and it should work.

23. Should have gone with my gut more. *

Made the same mistake on at least 5 questions *

24 here (spoilers).

The questions with lists were pretty manageable because of the ability to eliminate one name from the list, e.g., "I know Ron Santo and Mike Schmidt didn't have 3,000 hits." Definitely a great quiz.

And a sad reminder that I saw Matt Williams hit his 43rd and final home run on August 10, 1994 at a literally and figuratively gloomy day at Wrigley Field.

Regarding that date and another question (spoilers)

I wonder to this day if there would still be a team called the Montreal Expos if there hadn’t been a strike.
