Either that or he is the king of baseball knowledge :D

I dont really care, if they really need to look up the answer, they dont get any satisfaction out of getting the answer. If so, good for them.

Nope

And just for the record, I looked up names of people who hit for the cycle, not who's team they were on, it was a shot in the dark, and if I got it wrong, there were 5 other names you guys could have picked from

I'll go with the Big Drunky, David Wells, even tho I suspect that someone threw a perfect game in between him and the Unit...

Niiiiiiiice.

Now I have to think really hard and come up with a new question.

This should be easy: in keeping with the last question, name the only person to ever win Rookie of the Year and the Cy Young award in the same season.

Correct! Fernando was the man. I grew up in the LA area so I was a big fan when I was a kid.

Do your worst. :D
