Posted By: <b>Bill Todd</b><p>In honor of Azdrubal Cabrera's unassisted triple play last week, let's see some of the other guys:<br /><br />Pauli Hines (1878, but disputed)<br />Neal Ball (1909)<br />Wamby (1920)<br />George Burns (1923)<br />Ernie Padgett (1923)<br />Glenn Wright (1925)<br />Jimmy Cooney (1927)<br />Johnny Neun (1927--the next day!)<br /><br />If you have to show a Mickey Morandini card, go ahead, but let's try to keep it vintage.<br /><br />And what are the odds of Cleveland having made 3 of the 14 20th-century plays, <i>and</i> having another two (Burns, Neun) made against them?<br /><br />Bonus trivia: Which two of these guys (the 8 here) were traded for each other?<br /><br />Second bonus trivia: Which UTP guy (hint: not on the list above) is part of the only pair of players to be traded for each other twice in the same season?<br /><br />Bill
