And Yost, Shaughnessy, Walsh, Camp, Kerr, Ralston
Walsh played at UOP and Ralston at Cal, correct. So they'd be out, as it's players, correct. Forgot about Wiggin, he both played and unfortunately coached. The others I think were just coaches.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-24-2023
Brodie, Albert, Plunkett, Elway, Luck, Nelson, Nevers to start All Yes
Chuck Taylor Yes
College Hall of Fame so Lofton, Lynch Washington are No
Corbus, Grayson, Moscrip, Margerum, Reynolds, Taylor, Wiggin All yes
Robesky No
Post ?? NO
Ceresino, Wyman, Lawson, Donovan, all no
Muster, Whitfield No on both
Walsh went to College of San Mateo then San Jose State Never UOP or COP back then

Baby Faced Assassin. That was Corbus, right?
Bones Hamilton. Hugh Gallarneau?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - cardcrimson - 03-24-2023
Disappointingly, nary a guess on the minor league home run kings.
Overall, Hector Espino with 484 homers in the Mexican Leagues. Mike Hessman is the MLB affiliated minor league home run king, with 433 dingers in the minors.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-24-2023
Mick got two. Bones
Ok last one from the 50s. Long time pro then a lawyer

Still, only 18 players, as Ralston was a coach.
Yost, Camp, Warner, and Shaughnessy all coached at Stanford and are all inductees as well.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-24-2023
Ralston wasn’t one. Sorry
One more
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - terry - 03-25-2023
Chris Burford?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-25-2023
Thanks Terry is Burford.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Mick - 03-25-2023
I might suggest that we add Ralston to the list. He was inducted in 1992.
Inductee | John R. Ralston 1992 | College Football Hall of Fame (cfbhall.com)
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-25-2023
Mick Ralston played at cal. Then probably Pop Warner too

Sorry, I read too fast. You were limiting it to Stanford players, not Stanford players & coaches. Mea culpa.
Which batter hit into the most triple plays in his career? Hint: He was an infielder who participated in three triple plays of his own.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-25-2023
Brooks Robinson
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BostonCard - 03-25-2023
Speaking of triple plays, which San Francisco reliever entered the game with two men on and no outs, and ended the inning in a single pitch by inducing a triple play?
BC

Great question. I’ll be very impressed if anyone gets this one. (I looked it up since I had no idea)

Wild guess -- Rod Beck?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Mick - 03-25-2023
Greg Minton. Or Gary Lavelle.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 03-25-2023
Romo.
