    And MLS. He’s basically an icon in U.S. soccer. So much so they named the U.S. Open Cup tournament after him.

    Thirteen Hall of Famers have played for the LA/California/Anaheim/LA Angels franchise, but only three have been younger than 36 when they joined the team. Name them.

    Nolan Ryan is one.
    Did Rod Carew sneak in under the wire?

    That's two. Ryan was there in age 25 to 32 seasons and Carew was 33 to 39.

    I had a hunch on the third one (mainly because he was one of only four Angels Hall of Famers I could think of) and looked him up, so it's only kinda-sorta cheating.
    It's Reggie Jackson. Played the first month of the 1982 season at age 35, then turned 36 that May.

    Good trivia question from Mike Florio. Seven players have been on Super Bowl champions and later coached the teams they won their rings with. Name them.
