Musial played the harmonica. He did it at the 1987 WS press dinner. Maybe Colbert played it too.

A Bay Area native holds the NL record for most innings pitched in an opening day game. Who?
RE: Sports trivia thread - BostonCard - 04-04-2021
Nate Colbert grew up in St. Luis and was a big Cardinals fan. As a kid, he went to the doubleheader where Musial hit his five home runs.

What college has put the most players into the Baseball Hall of Fame?
Who was Stanford’s first MLB player?
This college put two players into MLB and one was a HOFer. What college and what player?
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 04-06-2021
First Stanford MLB player maybe Ernie Nevers
Usc has at least two. Seaver and Randy Johnson. More than two ?? Columbia? Must be east of the Rockies my guess
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 04-06-2021
No on Nevers. Look at the questions again Bobbbbbb.
Looking for the college that has put the most players into MLB and the college and the HOFer who is one of only two into MLB at that still functioning instituting.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 04-06-2021
Who was Stanford’s first MLB player? Why not Nevers. Washington Senators in the 20's
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 04-06-2021
Charlie Swindells, 1904 St. Louis Cardinals... 8 AB, 3 hits. Stanford University.
Now answer the other two kiddo.
RE: Sports trivia thread - Mick - 04-07-2021
I posed this same question last year, Charlie Swindells was Stanford's first MLB player. He played at Stanford from 1898 to 1899, graduated in 1901, and coached Stanford in 1902 and 1903. After baseball, he became an attorney.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 04-07-2021
Michigan has three in the Hall of Fame
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 04-07-2021
The other answer is Red Faber, not from Faber College but from Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 04-09-2021
Who was the first Latin America player named to the Baseball Hall of Fame ?

Luis Aparicio? I think he's the first Venezuelan.

RE: Sports trivia thread - BostonCard - 04-09-2021
OK, who was the first Venezuelan in the Majors? Who was the first to debut with the Giants?

RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 04-09-2021
All except the general. Phogge wins
First Venezuelan was pre 1947. But I don’t remember who
