so you think you know baseball............

Nope, neither of those two are in the top 5

 

Tough one. Lessee...I'd start with Beltre, obviously...Biggio, Yount, and Palmeiro. Brock, Winfield, Murray, Ripken. I think Jeter came close a few times, don't think he ever won one, though. What's that 9? Yeah that's all I got

 

ooh...Rickey. And maybe Molitor?

 

then i got bubkis. i know billy hamiton is good for 40+ a yr and has been playing a few years and gordon is always a high SB guy too.

 

9 plus the other 2 is 11.

1 more??? hint. he's deceased. and he's one of the oldest members of the 3000 hit club.

 

Hrm...Eddie Collins?

 

One is also the active hits leader. One is a SS who won a batting title. And the other three I guess would generally be considered in the mold of light-hitting OF'ers similar to Hamilton, but they're all older than him. (edit - disclaimer...one of them did have one spectacular offensive season he never repeated before or since, though)

Just looked out of curiosity...Hamilton is 13th on the active list, Gordon is 10th

 

Active... i'll go with B.Hamilton, Dee Gordon, Jose Reyes, ..............I give, no clue lol.

 

Reyes is #2

 

bingo. nice job. that wasn't that hard at all.

 

(edit - disclaimer...one of them did have one spectacular offensive season he never repeated before or since, though)

the guy on the yankees - jacoby ellsbury

 

is one beltre ? and the other brett gardner ?

 

Ellsbury is correct, #5. Beltre and Gardner are not. Still looking for 1 (someone with more hits than Beltre), 3 and 4 (two journeymen OF'ers)

 

^^ well if beltre has 3000 hits, is it ichiro?

 

Yes, Ichiro is #1

Probably beat the horse enough on the other two...

Rajai Davis is #3
Michael Bourn is #4

Grab the pine tar rag, Cat

 

who is the only HOF Pitcher to serve up a 3000th hit to a hitter? Bonus if you can name the batter too ??

 

^^ no attempts. it was dennis eckersley and dave winfield.

 

back again to stump the panel -- between 1924 and 1982 only 3 pitchers joined the 300 win club - who are they ??

 

Hmm...Warren Spahn for sure. Lefty Grove? And uhm...

 

2-2 u dog and #3 ?
