Lou Gehrig is correct.  OPS = 1.214 in 150 PAs.
Reggie Jackson not in the top 5 (OPS = .885).

One of the other 3 played in the '70s & 80's, one in the 2000s & 2010s, and one is current.

The most likely current answer is Harper so it must be someone else.  Just in case, I’ll guess Harper.

Harper is correct.  He was #5 before tonight, but moved up to #3.  OPS of 1.044 in 192 PAs.

Not Garvey - an AL guy.
Garvey's OPS was .910 in 232 PAs.

Total WAG...Pete Rose?

Backup choice: Rickey Henderson

Paul Molitor?

RE: Sports trivia thread 2023 - skip75 - 10-17-2023

No to all of these.
Rose was .828 in 301 PAs.
Henderson was .831 in 262.
Molitor was 1.050, but "only" 132 PAs.

Remaining answer played in the postseason 7 times between 1976 & 1985, winning the World Series once.

How about that he was a local high school baseball coach, as well. A pretty good one, too.
