‘67 is before my time, but the way you asked the question makes me think it was Walsh, no?

Walsh yes

Usually regarded as the most critical fielding metric, the Top Five Total Zone Runs Allowed MLB players are Brooks Robinson, Andruw Jones, Mark Belanger, Ozzie Smith and Roberto Clemente. Over his career, Robinson has saved 293 runs, defensively.
Which player has won five Gold Gloves, yet has the worst career Total Zone Runs Allowed, giving up 174 more runs than a comparable fielder?

Tatley kicked with a squared toe boot due to having a club foot.
Nice. Actually all I had found out about Tatley's physique is that he was only 5'7" but weighed 220.

Donovan Mitchell Scored 71 points in an NBA game on Monday, becoming only the seventh player to do so in NbA history. Since everyone knows Wilt Chamberlains 100 points, who were the other five? Hint: Two people not on that list are Michael Jordan and Lennon James.

McCartney didn't score 71 either.
RE: Sports Trivia 2023 - BobK - 01-08-2023
Bryant
Elgin Baylor
Presume 71 or
More?
RE: Sports Trivia 2023 - Phogge - 01-08-2023
Nah, Wilt had 20,000 scores.
RE: Sports Trivia 2023 - BostonCard - 01-09-2023
Bryant (81 on 1/22/2006) and Baylor (71 on 11/15/1960) are both correct. Wilt did it 5 times (100 in 3/2/1962, 78 in 12/8/1961, 73 in 1/13 and 11/16/1962, and 70 on 3/10/1963), and Mitchell scored 71 a week ago.
That leaves 3. As a hint, they occurred in 1978, 1994, and 2017.

Yes! 71 points on 4/24/1994.
The last one was Devin Booker, 70 points on 3/24/2017.

OK, new one. 40 rebound games. Two guys dominate the list, but four players have done it.

Wilt and Russell to start
