Frayed Knot

Bader spikes his bat a lot.

And he pulls himself out just as quickly.

No Foxx. Yes Delgado.

It is Trout. He passed Salmon 79 HRs ago which, sadly, was also sometime in the abbreviated 2020 season. Trout and Machado are the only active players to currently hold their franchise's HR record. I would think Pete has the next best shot, but he's going to need a contract first and that's up in the air at this point.

The rest are simply franchise HR leaders. I filled in Mays both since that was obvious and had been mentioned. And for the remaining slots I've filled in the totals. Still out there are the two Chicago teams, the Mariners, Rangers, Dodgers, Jays, A's, and Indians/Guardians,

Aaron of course is the Braves HR leader but he's not the right answer here because he also hit 22 as a Brewer But Bench, Zimmerman, and Musial are correct. Albert Pujols wound up just six HRs shy of Musial's StL total. This leaves just one more who fits the conditions of most franchise HRs and all on one team.

(Del Boca Vista) Phase III In addition to the Phillies and Schmidt, Twelve other players hit all their HRs for one team and also hold that franchise's all-time HR record. Have at it.

So with the first part of the quiz solved, and GWreck leading Chad 5 points to 3, it's on to phase two Who has the most HRs for a franchise AND hit ALL his HRs for just that one club?

=Gwreck post_id=170184 time=1726400371 user_id=56] Colbert used to be the correct answer, so he must have been overtaken by…Manny Machado.

That's an answer, but not the right answer for the question.

For the fewest HRs to lead a franchise???? What have you been drinking ... and can I have some? Yhe question on the table is: For which two franchises does their leading career HR hitter have fewer HRs than Darryl Strawberry's 252 for the Mets?

Yes and yes MFS = 8 Pts TEAM PLAYER HRs #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 #7 #8 #9 #10 #11 #12 #13 #14 #15 #16 #17 #18 #19 #20 #21 #22 #23 #24 #25 #26 #27 RAYS Evan Longoria261 #28 METSDarryl Strawberry 252 #29 DIAMONDBACKS Luis Gonzalez224 #30 PADRES 164 Except that that's two consecutive guesses so I rescind the 8 points.

On the plus side ... the DBacks are down 12 - Zippo in the 4th Brewers line score thru 4 = 1 7 0 4

Key word is 'Franchise'
