Happy Lefthanders Day Kwiz

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Cook was knocked out of the top 15 last year by Matz! He's now #16. I'm giving you 3 points for that.



Myers #12 is a Direct Hit!

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

1 hitter and 1 pitcher left: **@@-->>SPECIAL BONUS ROUND<<--@@**:



Guess both guys in the same post for a special 25-point bonus!!



Clue: they were on the same Mets team for 1 season!!

[MFS62]

Although I think they were teammates for more than one year, I'll swing from the heels:

Glendon Rusch and Timo Perez.

Oh, that'll cost ya 10 points

Down in flames.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm drawing a blank on who the teammate might be, so I'll pass on the Daily Double.



Billy Wagner?

[Edgy MD]

The number 13 pitcher is Mike Hampton.

smart strategy if you're already in the money, like betting just enough to beat the loser guy by $1 in Final Jeopardy



We're looking for 1 more lefthanded batter.



He was once a Mets teammate of Wagner

[Edgy MD]

Then our number 14 hitter has to be Cliff "Everyday I Wrap the Foot" Floyd.

[batmagadanleadoff]

Floyd #14 if its Wags' teammate.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Thanks for Playing Happy Lefthanders Day Kwiz!

I would have won this competition outright if it wasn't for that meddling Frank Viola.

[Edgy MD]

I think we need a playoff round.

[ashie62]

I suck at this stuff



Congrats to the winners! and all

I would've won if I simply typed "]
Floyd #14 if its Wags' teammate.

[Edgy MD]

True, but look how much meandering I did. I may have beaten you to the punch, but who's the real smartass there?

[batmagadanleadoff]

I don't even know what that means: "Everyday I wrap the foot". I must be getting old. I don't get lotsa pop culture references any more.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

That was a Cliff Floyd song parody many years ago.



I can't promise I accurately counted the final score

[MFS62]

How about a steel cage match to determine the winner?

Or a joust?

Later

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Oh by the way I did overlook Garrett 😬. Shoulda been there just after Grandyman

[Edgy MD]

Well, then, I demand a piece of the prize munny.

[Frayed Knot]

Niese, as well as Garrett, should have been included in the top 15
