That’s most FGs
Gotta be Janokowski.
I think the "Great Dane" Morten Andersen

Thank you Phogge for the question
Yes Morten Andersen

Grover Alexander. Reagan played him in a movie.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BostonCard - 01-20-2023
Working backwards, Reagan is gotta be the President actor, and he played Grover Cleveland Alexander in The Winning Team, who is named after Grover Cleveland.
BC

Direct from Marin County:
What MLB player had the highest Batting Average ever 15 or more At Bats ?
He was traded for a baseball announcer. What a hint

Who's the only athlete elected to both the NCAA baseball and basketball Halls of Fame?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 01-20-2023
Bill Sharman

Nope. This player was the 3rd overall pick in the 1952 NBA draft, never played a baseball game in the minors, played both at Duke, played one season in the NBA (11.9ppg) and finished 3rd in the 1952 MLB RoY vote.
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 01-20-2023
Good Hints. Dick Groat. Mvp with the Pirates
I miss Phogge here

Same here. And it was Dick Groat. His nephew is Brooks Koepka, btw, who says he'd much rather be a pro baseball player than a pro golfer.
Who are the five players who have won the "Major Leagues Triple Crown" meaning that they would have won the home run, RBI and batting average titles in both leagues that year?

Good one.
Yaz
Frank Robinson.

No and no. First would have been 1909, last was 1956. Yaz and Frank were right after the 1956 T/C.

Mantle, Gehrig were correct. Other three were Ted Williams, Rogers Hornsby and Mickey Mantle.
Stanford's mascot is the Cardinal, referencing the color. How did the St. Louis Cardinals mascot manifest? In other words, why and when were they first called the Cardinals?
RE: Sports trivia thread 2022 - BobK - 01-20-2023
Mantle twice???
