Casey Schmitt trivia:

1) Only two MLB players in history have had at least eight hits, 4 RBI and 4 runs scored over their first three career games. One is Casey Schmitt. Who is the other?

2) Casey's throw from SS to 1B yesterday measured at 92.7 mph, second fastest in the majors this year. Who threw .1 mph faster?

3) Casey homered twice in his first three games. Four other Giants since 1901 have homered twice in their first three games. Who are they?

4) Only one Giant other than Schmitt had at least eight hits in his first three games. Which Giant?

Bonus question: who is the only MLB player with at least 2,500 hits, a .300 batting average and 200 home runs and is NOT in the Hall of Fame?
