Roberto Alomar had a year where he played 153 games and hit .326, how in the world did he not get to 200 hits

 

Spoiler

Yeah, I guessed Alomar for TOR/200, then guessed Ted Williams and Pete Rose for 100/200. Somehow got Yount for MIL/200 when there are only 4 correct answers

I only got 5 today, which I think matches my all-time worst. Whiffed a couple of times on the 200-hit spots and totally blanked the obvious Phillies/Jays name.

I see they added an NBA grid today, so even more time-suck. I actually got 8 of them, which is surprising since I haven't watched a full NBA regular-season game in damn near a decade now. (I do, however, play NBA 2K, so that helps.) Should've gotten 9, but I whiffed an obvious Pistons/Suns name.

Oakland has me stumped again. I'm at 7/7 but am rattling my brain over OAK/HOU and OAK/MIA

EDIT: 7/9. Could've used two of our favs and I chickened out

Those were the 2 I used to get 9/9.

I thought this one was pretty easy. I fortunately heard my A's/Astros guy on a HoF thingy I was watching a few days ago. 

GD it all, I didn't know that name worked for the center square or I'd have used it. Only one I missed.

5/9 today. Made some informed (but wrong) guesses:

Spoiler

Guessed Dave Winfield before Tatis and Rizzo before Bellinger. Also guessed Trout for 40/GG

I got 8 today, got stuck on the center square, wildly guessed Jesse Orosco and missed.

A friend of mine is a freaking wizard on the game and beats me almost every day. Some of the names he comes up with are nuts.

4/9, my worst score yet. You could've given me a year and I wouldn't have guessed the COL/200K player. I also figured DET/PIT was littered with players from the 1920's and I was right. 

This one was easily the hardest grid they've put up. The success rates are really low on several of the boxes

I got 5 and bailed.

Better today (7/9). Orioles stumped me. I guessed:

Charles Johnson

for ATL/BAL but I had the wrong All Star catcher

I got 7 and would've had my best score ever if I could've figured out Orioles/Bosox and White Sox Cy Young. No correct answers above 14%

I would love just one day for there not to be the A's, Twins or Orioles on this stupid game

I've gotten to the point where I have a list of guys who played for lots of teams

Spoiler

Mike Morgan, LaTroy Hawkins, Edwin J, Dotel, Terry Mulholland, Rich Hill, Matt Stairs, Ron Villone, Paul Bako, Miguel Batista, Henry Blanco, Bruce Chen, Bartolo Colon, Kenny Lofton and Julian Tavarez all played for at least 11 teams

8/9 today. Couldn't come up with CLE/3k, but don't really feel bad about it as there are only 4 correct answers.
