Obscure sports trivia

If you count his NPB years, he has 17. But in MLB, he only has had 10, which is close, but not quite there.

 

My guess for the right fielder is Kaline or Clemente.

 

Not sure if this triggered this question, but could be an interesting watch.

Fox Sports doc 'The Perfect 10' will premiere Saturday, February 11th (awfulannouncing.com)

Narrated by Andre Braugher, The Perfect 10 brings seven of the ten men to win the Heisman Trophy and be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Tim Brown and Charles Woodson, featured in the film, served as executive producers on the project.

... The three Heisman winning Hall of Famers not included are Doak Walker (passed away in 1998), Paul Hornung (passed away in 2020), and OJ Simpson (gestures broadly).

 

Clemente is in right

Barry Bonds is in left with eight, and depending on the source so does Alex Gordon.

 

Years ago I was in a ski shop in Steamboat Springs, and turned around to find a Heisman Trophy atop one of those circular garment display racks. It was Doak Walker's, he owned the shop. I made sure to ask how much but got no offer.

 

Name the pitcher with the most 200 plus inning seasons in MLB history?

 

Walter Johnson?

 

He has 18, but that is not the highest.

 

Don Sutton

 

Dang, I thought this one would have lasted awhile. Yep, Sutton had 20.

 

Thought about Walter J0hnson, then saw that was a "no." Then Christy Matthewson and some of the knuckleballers. Phil Niekro's got to be up there on that list.
