Owning a baseball card company sure comes in handy.

Just thought of Tom Paciorek instead of Marisnick.

Got four boxes then punted.

My ninth Immaculate Grid, with a rarity score of 72. (My best score was a 5!) None of my choices were the post popular answer. My recollection that several members of the Big Red Machine ended up in Philadelphia helped me with this puzzle.

I had a little voice that whispered “Larry Andersen” for Phillies/Red Sox. I’m glad I listened

easy one today

Yeah just 3 squares to fill with the two-team combos which are almost always harder (for me) than the single season/career milestones

[Fman99]

Back to back days, not sure I've done that before. I had 8/9 and got busy with work and it gave me time to come up with a good TEX 30 SB guy, which I did.

The grid appears to be down this morning. Maybe they need more bandwidth.

Got 8 but whiffed on LAA/DET grrrr

[Benjamin Grimm]

I missed twice on the Padres 40-save guy. Tried Goose Gossage and Rollie Fingers. Trevor Hoffman is too recent for me.

[cal sharpie]

Took a while to come up with Angels-Tigers but finally did, completing it. Woulda had a record score except for the saves guys were too common.

Lost on my second guess today, in the 200K column. I had Bob Gibson for the Cardinals, but when I advanced to the row for the Orioles, I was surprised to learn that Jim Palmer never struck out 200 batters in a season.

I seem to remember that being in a puzzle earlier in the year, because I was thrown by that too. Today I missed on Mike Cuellar there, and finally settled on Dave McNally

[Chad ochoseis]

I guessed Palmer. Then I guessed Cuellar. Then I gave up on that square.

[Frayed Knot]

I went with Palmer as well. Mussina didn't occur to me.

Went back to BALL FOUR and dredged up Steve Barber for MIL/BAL, an inspired (IMHO) and <1.0% choice

Another inspired choice would have Billy Beane for MIN/OAK (young Billy is in both unis during flashback scenes in the movie) but that was NOT one that came to mind in time.

[cal sharpie]

I guesses Dizzy Dean for 200 Cardinal ks. He led the NL in strikeouts four straight times striking out between 191 and 199 batters. Maddening.

I'd tend to avoid guessing 200K/season pitchers from pre WWII. Batters just didn't strike out all that much back then and a pitcher could lead the league in K/9IP averaging six or even five K's per 9 innings. I mean, if I could get in Walter Johnson, I'd go for him, though.

I also got Palmered on yesterday's IG.

[TransMonk]

I’m ashamed to admit that I’ve been playing this game since this thread started and today was my first Immaculate. I usually stop playing once I get one wrong. I’m an immaculate or nothing kind of guy.
