    So what? You said team, not city.

    Sure. Answer's still the Braves, though.

    how can it be the braves when spahn didn't play in atlanta?

    he would be under the milwaukee braves hof'ers, not atlanta. the atlanta braves is a franchise. the milwaukee braves are a different franchise.

    and you're wrong it's the baltimore orioles!

    palmer, robinson, robinson, ripken and murray.

    So you agreed there was no city qualifier, then differentiated between the same franchise playing in two different cities again. Tha F!?

    The Milwaukee Braves and the Atlanta Braves are the same franchise.

    Frank Robinson played twice as many games for the Reds as he did the Orioles, so I assumed that was who got credit for him for the HOF but apparently he has an O's cap on his plaque, so at best that's a tie. *REF*

    first off - IT'S MY QUESTION. I don't see the Milwaukee Braves and Atlanta Braves as the same franchise. Sorry. Just like the St. Louis Rams aren't the LA Rams to me. New city, new team records, new Hall of Famers. Spahn is a Milwaukee Brave HOF'er, not a Atlanta one! Hank Aaron is a Atlanta Brave HOF'er. That's different, where it was a move, merger, buy-out etc.

    And I didn't put the Oriole on their HOF Cap either ! It's not a tie bc you think playing more games should be 1 team vs another. It's the Halls call. Frank Robinson is a Oriole Hall of Famer, not Cincinnati's!

    This makes literally no sense...you have to be the only person who believes this. Hank Aaron played 1800 games for the Braves team/franchise (remember YOU specified on YOUR question first team, then franchise, irrespective of city) when they were located in Milwaukee. Then he played another 1200 games for the Braves team/franchise after they moved to Atlanta. He didn't change teams. He didn't change franchises. The team/franchise he played for started playing their home games in a different city. He's not a Milwaukee HOF'er or an Atlanta HOF'er. He's a BRAVES HOF'er.

    I wasn't quibbling with you on that part, just stating why I didn't include him in their count when trying to reason out the question, or else I would've said Braves and Orioles lol.

    bubkis!

    what 2 pitchers allowed the most hrs in a career and a single season ?

    1 is a HOF'er. The other is not.

    According to the official books, when a team moves and keeps the nickname, the team is still the same team because they have the same nickname. Like wherever the Rams move too and no matter how many times, they will always be considered Rams records. I'm like Fish, I don't agree with that because it's a different city, but thats the way they work it in the books.......I'm almost positive! :)

    Bert Blyleven and Jose Lima?
     
  15. Catfish Guest

    it doesn't matter. i don't follow the books. it was my question and the answer was the baltimore orioles, not the milwaukee and or equal as the atlanta braves.
     
  16. Catfish Guest

    that was fast. blyleven is the single season one. lima, i think, it 2nd or 3rd on the list. put it this way, a phillie beat a phillie for the record...

    Can you name the only player to win an MVP Award while leading the league in errors as fielder and strikeouts as a hitter? Hint: Despite his 39 errors, this shortstop won his second Gold Glove in his MVP year.

    Zoilo Versalles

    Correct Fish, your up at the plate.......

    who was the youngest pitcher to throw at WS shutout at 20 yrs old and 11 months?

    hint-he pitched in the last 40 yrs from today and is a HOF'er.
