Needed a couple guesses there for the Dodgers 3000 K guy. Freaking Kershaw has 2,912 Ks. I think I should have gotten partial credit for being close.

OK they really need to say which washington team...I get the logo but there are like 4 of them.

It burned me but it’s because I’m an idiot and didn’t stop to think.

Nationals logo unlocks Montreal Expos

Twins logo: unlocks Washington Senators from 1901-1960

Rangers logo: unlocks Washington Senators, from 1961-1971

Wanted to go all black and white but was running out of names that were popping into my head. That's why I ended up going Yount for rarity.

Blew a pick on Ernie Banks... but then after I was done I looked at the 3000 options for Cleveland and would not have gotten it anyways.

I also guessed Ernie Banks.  I considered Billy Williams but he only had 2700-something, so that would have been wrong too.  I don't know why Palmiero didn't come to mind.

I need to study pre-WWII baseball more.  I recognize most of the names, including all of the ones Huck played today, but with a few exceptions I don't know the teams they played for or which milestones they hit.

Born, raised, and buried in Texas and what, 5th (?) in all-time hits.  

Should be part of the 7th grade Texas history curriculum.  

Also, I think I'm skipping today, because mine would look just like Huck's.

What the hell Cubs? Not Ernie Banks? Not Ron Santo? Who the hell got 3,000 hits for this team? Was it Tinker, Evers, or Chance?

Edit: Ok so looking it up, the answers were:

1. the notorious racist Cap Anson who played for them before they were even called the Cubs in the 19th Century (and apparently nobody is even entirely sure how many hits he even had)

2. Lou Brock who I only knew as a Cardinal, I had no clue he started his career with the Cubs.

3. Rafael Palmeiro, who I should have known but again he only started his career with the Cubs.

So beyond two guys who played their first couple years with the Cubs before going on to better things with other better teams and a 19th century guy, the Cubs have nobody in their long history who has 3,000 hits. Crazy.

Met my daily goal of at least one black and white, one Texas Ex, one guy that passed through Houston, and one guy that’s less than 1% (who is usually the longhorn)

Unfortunately, I whiffed on first guesses for Cubs/Indians 3,000 hitter. (Banks… and Lou Brock randomly popped in to head so gave him a shot first under cleveland only to see he would have worked one column to the right.

they are making this harder for the stat categories. Only 7 possible answers for the two left columns combined. Of that, 3 played their entire careers before the Great Depression. And another two (Brock, Palmeiro) started their careers in Chicago but who actually thinks of them playing in the Windy City?

I usually only know one team they played on. That's the problem for this particular game.

77 of my 91 rarity points came from my Blue Jay row.  I'm pretty happy with my Astros row though.  And I beat Beau to Brett Maverick Phillips.

Who is Chone Figgins? I’m shocked I don’t remember that name. I must have blacked out from 2007-2011.

 

Chone was a Tony Phillips starter kit who got MVP votes as a utility player for the Angels.  The Mariners gave him a big FA contract and he suddenly couldn't hit water if he fell out of a boat.  My friends in Seattle still speak ill of him.

K-Rod was kind of a guess. Wasn't sure about him and it was the last square so I said screw it. Worked out. Proud that the Astros row was under 2%.

 

Spoiler

Astros row under 2 is OK I guess.  It's not under 1 though.

I'm actually surprised Halama is higher than Anthony.

Honestly it's probably just Astros fans who think of Johnson then go with who he was traded for to lower the rarity. So what I did. 

Wish I'd used yours. Still remember a laser home run he hit at Candlestick. In my memory it got out as fast as Oneill Cruz's 122mph homer in Pittsburgh. Obviously probably not but I wish they'd had those numbers then.

Disappointed I didn’t try harder on my Astros/Mariner.  But am glad to see I’m the only poster here to go with the OG Astro Honduran for the steals category. I loved that dude as a kid

Pudge kind of ruined my rarity score.  I wouldn't have thought that many people would remember him with the Marlins.

Everyone tries to pull randos. Some try it without cheating.

I knew he’d be a high % but I was stumped. And I could’ve had a Scraps day.

Incorrect douchebag. I typically just run through and get 9/9 not caring about rarity while some others who do can't even get a full board.
