Look at the following career total stat line, and guess which player has those numbers. Then leave your guess as a comment to this post. First one with the right answer wins a custom desktop wallpaper featuring your favorite (non-dodger, non-o. smith) player, from any sport, built to the size of your screen. Obviously, the "honor system" is at work here as far as not researching the answer. You can submit more than one answer, but please make each guess a separate comment. Come back every Friday for another game and chance to win!
This player spent his entire 19-year career with one National League team. Adam says we should note that he played in the Modern Era (1980-Present). So ... whose line is this? (click to view larger image)
Hints:
- He was an All Star 12 times
- He finished in the top 10 in MVP voting 2 times
Last week's answer: Babe Ruth
I want to say Todd Helton, but not sure if the Rocks have been around that long..
ReplyDeleteI'll guess Tony Gwynn
ReplyDeleteIt is not Helton (150 more HR, and higher in each of AVG/OBP/SLG), nor is it Gwynn (approx 800 more hits).
ReplyDeleteBut a correct guess game via Facebook, and we'll take it.
The correct answer is Barry Larkin, whom I sincerely hope will be enshrined in Cooperstown in the near future.
Of course... (slaps forehead)
ReplyDeleteBy the way leaving a comment on here is almost as difficult as breaking into the pentagon.
ReplyDeleteBut commenting here makes you much less likely to disappear into some secret federal prison.
