NLDS - Diamondbacks- Dodgers

[Gwreck]

Only homered in postseason for the Dodgers.

[Gwreck]

Leaving this one open a little longer. The non-Met answers are



JD Martinez

Russell Martin

Nelson Cruz

Reggie Sanders

Mike Napoli

Ron Gant

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Asdrubal Cabrera.



That's a killer trivia question

[Gwreck]

Asdrubal did not hit a home run in the Mets 3-0 loss in the 2016 wild card game, his only Mets postseason appearance.

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

OK, how about Granderson

[metirish]

This is great , how about Ventura?

[Gwreck]

Curtis played in the postseason with 5 teams (DET, NYY, NYM, LAD, MIL) but only homered for the first 3.



Ventura played in the postseason with 4 teams (CHW, NYM, NYY, LAD) but only homered for the first two teams.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Damn, I thought for sure it was gonna be Cabrera. How bout Murphy?

[Johnny Lunchbucket]

Jack Leathersich. I give up.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Jack Leathersich has played in the postseason with 8 different teams but has only homered for 3 of them.

[Benjamin Grimm]

I'm just seeing this question now. It looks like Cliff Floyd hasn't been guessed.

[metirish]

Burnitz ?



Trying to think of guys that got around the league

[Gwreck]

Not Murphy, Floyd, or Burnitz.



The player in question has homered off 4 hall of fame pitchers in the postseason.

[A Boy Named Seo]

Wait, is it Tommy Pham? Assuming the 4 HOFers could include future guys like Kershaw.

[Gwreck]

Answer is:



John Olerud.



1993 WS, for Toronto against Curt Schilling*

1999 NLDS, off Randy Johnson

1999 NLCS, off Glavine and Smoltz

2001 ALDS and ALCS, for Seattle

2004 ALCS, for the Yankees, off Pedro Martinez.



*Not in the HOF but added for context.

[metirish]

Wow , great trivia

[Frayed Knot]

Holy Shit!!

Watching LAD/ARZ via slight delay as I catch up, the Snakes go deep for four solo HRs, all off starter Lance Lynn, in the 3rd inning. One was even called a HR until called back via replay, and then HR'd on the next pitch anyway.



Had never been four HRs in one inning in post-season history before.

Now there has been.

[G-Fafif]

How ya gonna beat Paul Sewald with a postseason series on the line?

[metirish]

Haha
