Without going to the tweet can you guess the player ?

[nymr83]

I was going to say Randy Johnson but i have a hard time beliebing he hit 9 homers even in little league

[Benjamin Grimm]

I was thinking Roger Clemens, but again, the nine home runs seems unlikely.

[MFS62]

Could be Zach Greinke, but I'm not sure if he pitched in both leagues.

I doubt that Nolan Ryan hit nine homers either.



Bob Gibson probably did, but he never pitched in the American League.



Tom Seaver pitched in both leagues, but he never led the AL in ERA.

Also Silver Sluggers came into existence in the early 1980s.

Greinke is definitely my first guess. Kevin Brown after that.

They haven't given the answer but Greinke seems to be the most common answer, some guessed C.C. Verlander , Mike Hampton, Bumgarner

[Chad ochoseis]

Thinking it's someone who isn't thought of as a great pitcher.



Livan Hernandez had a fine career and could hit. Not sure he lasted 17 seasons, but he's my guess.

When will we find out the answer?

I'll also throw a Gaylord Perry guess into the fray.

[metirish]

I've been checking and they haven't given the answer , but Greinke won the silver slugger in 2013( Dodgers) and 2019 ( D-Backs )
