Gotta be someone who played for a while, slow, hits the ball hard, and hits it on the ground a lot. Not sure what the number even is, but if it's over 3, that'd be a shocker... First guess, Greg Luzinski... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming as IUFLA said slow and played awhile. Maybe a catcher or slow footed contact hitter. I'll say Gary Carter. Haha. I know I'm wrong and more than likely given the trivia on this board the answer is probably a shocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never hit for much of an average and played for a long time... I'm thinking the guys who hit a lot of homers are more fly ball hitters...so I wouldn't think Bench 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides the most famous one (Gibson) my guess would be Jay Johnstone which I know is the wrong answer. Only reason I remember that one is because he joined the Cubs a couple years later after his 81 series dong. Otherwise I have nothing.
