I got everything except the middle square today. I couldn't think of a Diamondback who stole 30 bases. I made a pretty good guess, though: Steve Finley. He stole 30 or more three times in his career, twice as an Astro and once as a Padre, but the most he ever stole for Arizona was 16.



Only seven players have stolen 30 or more for Arizona, and I never ever ever would have guessed any of them.

Some days I take a Quick Look at the grid and say to myself, 'Do I really want to spend 45 minutes racking my brain

trying to come up with an Oriole/Tiger?' And I answer 'No' and pull the ripcord.

My first guess of the day for TEX/.300 was Toby Harrah.



I remembered the 1982 season when he was hitting .400 at the end of April, just shy of .390 at the end of May, and still over .350 as July began

en route to a season where his BA would fall to .304 but still a career year even as he just missed a .300/400/.500 line [.304/.398/.490] w/58 XBH.

And while he wasn't voted onto the starting eight that year (on account of George Brett also being an AL 3rd sacker) he was a reserve so it became

a controversy when AL mgr Billy Martin made him the only player not to enter the game despite his ongoing great career season. Harrah wound up

playing in 162 games that year but couldn't get into that one. Martin had managed the Rangers a few years earlier and there were rumors of friction

between the two. Of course everyone had friction with Billy sooner or later so this was just typical two-bit pettiness from him.



What I didn't remember was that Harrah was playing for Cleveland by '82, not Texas, and it turns out he never hit .300 for the Rangers ...

so, Strike One!

I didn't feel like playing after that ... so I didn't.

Whenever there's a 1st round pick question I tend to forget that it doesn't have to be a 1st round pick of the team shown, only

that he was a 1st round pick of someone but then played for the team listed at some point. I could have given some better

answers had I remembered that.





LAD/BAL - Boog Powell (I remember being at a NYM/LAD game at Shea when Boog was a PH at the end of his career ... and looked to be 400 lbs)

BAL/C - Andy Etchebarren (can't pass on a name like that)

BAL/1stR - Jackson Holliday (not surprisingly that one was a 28% guess)

TBR/LAD - Tyler Glasgow

TBR/C - Travis d'Arnaud (he was there for like a week)

TBR/1stR - Evan Longoria (38%)

LAD/MIN - Ken Landreaux

MIN/C - Butch Wynegar

MIN/1stR - Byron Buxton (18%)



Score = 129

PIT/HOU: Phil Garner; PIT 20W: Doug Drabek (48%!!); PIT/30 steals Frank Tavares

BOS/HOU: Curt Schilling; BOS 20W: Jim Lonborg; BOS/30: Johnny Damon (the answer I was least sure of)

What I learned today upon looking it up after the game: the Pirates have had 62 20-win seasons in their history turned in by 31

different pitchers. Only three of those occurred in the last 65 years: John Candelaria (1977), Doug Drabek (1990), John Smiley (1991)
