You got it, Bob. In 1978, Knepper had six.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 04-30-2021
Knepper from Napa Valley iirc

Yep. Calistoga HS
RE: Sports trivia thread - Mick - 05-02-2021
Knepper had an interesting career. Led the league in shutouts twice, HBP once. Led the league in losses (17) in 1987, but went 14-5 the next year and made the all-star team for the Astros.
Quick trivia question: Name two pitchers who led the league in losses and made the all star team that year.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 05-02-2021
Early Wynn
Phil Neiko

In 2004 Barry Bonds hit 45 homers and struck out 39 times. He was the first hitter to accomplish the feat since a 1955 Star. Who?
In the middle Fifties two MLB clubs introduced a sleeveless uni top. What clubs?
What is the rule re uniform under shirt (what we called “sleeves” back in the day) for pitchers?
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 05-02-2021
Cincy Reds were one sleeveless with Big Klu
I think sleeves couldn’t be white.
More
This player had the last hit for the Dodgers at Ebbets Field the first for the Dodgers in LA and the first at Dodger stadium
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 05-02-2021
Correct on the Reds but you didn’t mention the other team.
No part of the undershirt can be white.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 05-02-2021
I only recall Klu
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 05-02-2021
The Pirates. Our Gator unis were a copy.
Correct on Klu...1955.

Charlie Neal?
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 05-02-2021
Good one but no
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 05-03-2021
Gilliam? Campy? Don Hoak? The Reading Rifle?
Two outstanding players on the '27 Yankees were afflicted with maladies which they overcame. Name them and their medical problems. Not the Bambino.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 05-03-2021
Not any dodger named but a hint. Then he played with the Giants
Gehrig for one LOL
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 05-03-2021
Either the Duke or Joe Pignatano. Maglie had played for the Giants before.
Nobody knew Lou Gehrig was sick until 1938 or '39. Who was sick in '27?
RE: Sports trivia thread - BostonCard - 05-03-2021
Eddie Kasko had the first hit at Dodger stadium, but he played for the Reds.

RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 05-03-2021
It was the Duke. Duke Snider
Eddie Kasko wore glasses. He was an infielder. Who was the first MLB catcher to wear glasses
RE: Sports trivia thread - Phogge - 05-03-2021
Clint Courtney.
RE: Sports trivia thread - BobK - 05-03-2021
Clint is the answer.
