Bobbbbb Q#1..... Gibson or Carlton?
Q#2.... The only consecutive expansion was 1961 with the Angels and “new” Washington Senators (“old” Senators moved to Minneapolis) and 1962 in the NL with the Mets and Houston Colt 45’s. I’ll think about it.
Josh Donaldson scored the two millionth run on Saturday. Who scored #one million in 1975 and in what stadium?

No Gibson or Charlton. Newer pitcher
Yes on expansion timeframe now who?

Wild guess, one of my favorite players ever Gene Woodling. I remember that he had a good year with the Mets. If not him maybe Eddie Yost.
Newer pitcher... Clemens?

Templeton famously batted righthanded against righties the last week of the season to get to his 100 RH hits. He did have his mgr's permission.
