Obscure sports trivia

nice. that's the one I thought people wouldn't get.

 

The other two are probably so obvious I can't think of them off the top of my head.

 

A-Rod's gotta be one. Mariners, Yankees and Rangers.

For the other one I'll guess Fred McGriff, with the Blue Jays, Padres and Braves.

 

I figured McGriff wasn't with the Padres long enough, so I looked it up. Sure enough, he had 84 in 2 1/2 seasons in San Diego. He probably would have hit triple figures if he spent the whole '93 season with the Padres.

However, he was closer to making the list than I realized: He had 99 homers in five years with the (Devil) Rays.

 

Yeah, I didn't realize he was with the Rays long enough to get close. He tried like hell to hang around and get to 500 with them, but couldn't quite push over the line.

 

Just found the other one while plugging some names into Baseball Reference. He's not obscure, but is one most people probably won't think of right away for this question.

 

Yup, Arod is the fourth. You’re right, 5th is a little more obscure than arod, but a surefire HOFer

 

Beltre?

 

Correct. That’s the fifth

 

Who are the only three NFL running backs with 10,000 yards rushing and 5,000 yards receiving?

 

Marshall Faulk is definitely one. I think Tiki Barber. Will guess Payton as the third, but don’t like the odds.

 

Two out of three. No on Sweetness. Barber is the one people I’ve asked usually forget/miss, even some Giants fans.
