    Easy one here. Part 1. What pitcher just joined the 3500 K club?
    Part 2. Who is closest to being the next member?

    VerLander just crossed over the threshold. I would guess that Scherzer would be next up.

    He or Kershaw, they are real close to one another. BTW Verlander should pass 2-3 guys moving on up the ladder.

    In the years 1959-1962, there were two all-star each season. Aaron played 23 years, 1954-1976.

    Who hit the only walk off inside the park grand slam?

    Added in edit: I knew that he did this but I did go online to make sure that he was the only one to do this.

    I was going to guess Mays as the guy with the most because he got a number of "courtesy" All Star calls late in his career when he really wasn't that good anymore. Still an icon of the game.

    I recall it happening but not who did it. It will pop in my head at 3 a.m. tonight.

    Two pitchers share the World Series record for Home Runs by a pitcher @ 2. Who might they be? One NL one AL.

    A hint for the inside the park walk off grand slam: A HOF player.

    I was pretty sure that this epic play was a Pittsburgh Pirate. I think it is one of two players, but with your hint you have completely muddied the water as Dave Parker has recently been inducted into the HOF.

    I was thinking either Roberto Clemente or Dave Parker and now I’m no closer to being sure which one it is.
