Obscure sports trivia

Not Sutton, but another good guess. He appeared in four ASG.

Evil, the player debuted after 1933.

 

Good guess. I was looking at it the other way, but your way seems more likely.

 

Also, it's a position player, not a pitcher.

 

So it's a HoFer who was a compiler and not great for a significant period?

 

I gave 24 hours. Robin Yount, a two time MVP, 3,000 hit, gold Glover winner and first ballot Hall of Famer. His three came in four years and then Ripken entered the league and stopped at short. A few years later Yount shifted to center and got lost behind bigger names such as Henderson, Winfield, Rice and Canseco.

 

It's really a fluke that a two-time MVP only made three ASGs. He wasn't even an All-Star in 1989, when he won his second MVP.

 

In the history of the Big Four drafts, the record for most consecutive seasons that a Hall of Famer was taken with the top overall pick is four. Who are the four players?

 

Worthy, Sampson, Olajuwon and Ewing?

I think Sampson is in the basketball hall, albeit for his college exploits.

 

Correct.
Brad Daugherty broke the streak, but David Robinson went in 1987 and that would have been six in a row.

 

Name the only person to play in five professional football leagues? (CFL, AFL, NFl, WFL and USFL)

 

Jim Kiick?

 

No, but that did send me down the rabbit hole of looking up his career stats again.
