    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    Looking for Al Hrabosky and any OPC Dave Campbells (the ESPN guy)

    Jerry Koosman is close, but wrong.

    Name the player whose single season highs in each extra base hit category total the highest.

    For example:

    Greg Luzinski hit 37 doubles in 1982, 5 triples in 1972 and 39 home runs in 1977 for a total of 81.

    Name player and totals.

    I collect Vintage Cards, Commemorative Sets, and way too many vintage and modern player collections in Baseball (180 players), Football (175 players), and Basketball (87 players). Also have a Dallas Cowboy team collection.

    Though no prize is associated with my question, can anybody name the player with the FEWEST extra base hits who had at least 200 hits in a single season?

    Not a bad guess, but nope. Lloyd had 223 hits in 1927 with 17 2B, 6 3B and 2 HR for a low total of 25 extra base hits.

  • WondoWondo Posts: 2,916 ✭✭✭
    Willie Keeler - 1898 with 7 doubles, 2 triples, 1 home run among his 200+ hits.

    Nice question! image

    Is that the correct answer?
    Wondo

  • JackWESQJackWESQ Posts: 2,133 ✭✭✭
    Winner!! I think. I'm fairly certain about this. In 1898, Keeler had 216 hits with 7 doubles, 2 triples and 1 home run. Amazing.
