No guesses? No one curious? He's mentioned with his brother Chipper. . . .

Nope. Think country. Think current star.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 04-20-2023
When I think country I think Willie Nelson and Linda Ronstadt.

98 Braves, by Morgan Wallen

Indeed it is. Nicely done.
Daughter commandeers the car stereo and plays country, and I had to chuckle when the 98 Braves song played. Equating what seemed to be a great love relationship that didn't work out to the the 98 Braves is creative and pretty funny. Of course my daughter has no idea about the Braves at all. . . .

Francisco Rodriguez, pitching for the Tigers against the Indians on April 15, 2017, entered a game with a five-run lead, two outs and the bases loaded. He allowed a grand slam to Lonnie Chisenhall (who was pinch hitting for currently out-for-the-season Giants catcher, Roberto Perez), then struck out Austin Jackson to record the final out for a save in a 7-6 win. Only time that's happened.
Detroit Tigers vs Cleveland Indians Box Score: April 14, 2017
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - terry - 04-23-2023
Who has the most Gold Gloves at each of the nine positions?
The Gold Glove awards started in 1957.
Pasportsfan - PAsportsfan - 04-23-2023
Shortstop
Ozzie smith?

Correct! Smith won 13 Gold Gloves.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - Mick - 04-23-2023
Brooks Robinson at 3B. 16, I believe.
Johnny Bench at Catcher, 10, I think.
Garry Maddox in CF? Here's hoping...if not Garry, Willie Mays.

Pitcher Jim Kaat or Greg Maddux
1B - Keith Hernandez
If he isn’t on the list, he should be - Roberto Clemente

Brooks Robinson with 16 Gold Gloves is correct. Good knowledge.
Willie Mays also is correct, with 12 GGs.
Not Bench.

Three correct answers -- Greg Maddux (18 GGs), Keith Hernandez (11 GGs), and Roberto Clemente (12 GGs).
So far, we have these correct answers:
RF Clemente, 12
CF Mays, 12
LF ???
1B Hernandez, 11
2B ???
SS Smith, 13
3B Robinson, 16
C ???
P Maddux, 18
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - qwerty49 - 04-23-2023
I'll guess Pudge Rodriguez at C.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BostonCard - 04-23-2023
Bonds in left
Alomar at 2B

All three answers are correct -- Rodriguez (13 GGs), Bonds (8 GGs), and Alomar (10 GGs).
Well done, everyone!
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - skip75 - 04-23-2023
OK, now let's do Silver Sluggers by position. Silver Slugger awards began in 1980.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - PAsportsfan - 04-23-2023
3rd base
Mike Schmidt?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - skip75 - 04-23-2023
(04-23-2023, 07:03 PM)PAsportsfan Wrote: 3rd baseNo - Schmidt had 6 in the first 7 seasons that Silver Sluggers were awarded and would have likely had more if it had existed prior to 1980. He is still the leader at 3B in the NL, but the MLB leader (from the AL) has 8.
Mike Schmidt?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - terry - 04-23-2023
Some guesses -
3B - Boggs or Beltre
SS - Ripken or Rodriguez
CF - Trout
1B - Pujols
C - Rodriguez
LF - Bonds
