I tried Frank Howard for the Minnesota/30 HR, forgetting that he'd played for the Senators that became the Rangers, not the Senators that became the Twins.

He actually played in Texas for one season. I wouldn't have guessed he'd been active into the 70s.

I got an 8.

Gaylord Perry 1

Newhouser was the last one I did and he wrecked my goal of not going over 1.

I didn't even bother today. I bailed once I saw that I would be asked to name someone who was a Tampa Bay Ray and a White Sock.

I couldn't think of a one-team 30/30 guy, and then shamefully discovered that David Wright would have been one of only ten possible correct answers.
