Posted By: <b>Richard Simon</b><p>Two of my favorite baseball trivia questions: (I could not resist when I saw the Bob Feller trivia question to post my own)<br /><br />What two players had home runs as a 19 year old and as a 40 year old?<br /><br />What player had 500 hits for four different teams?<br />=<br /><br />I refuse to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed opponent.<br />Unknown author <br />--<br />We made a promise. We swore we'd always remember.<br />No retreat baby, no surrender.<br />The Boss

Posted By: <b>CN</b><p> I believe the answer is Ty Cobb and Rusty Staub for question #1 and Rusty Staub for question #2. CN Staub did it for the Astros,Expos,Mets and Tigers.

Posted By: <b>Fred Y</b><p>I have a chart that lists all of Mantles 536 reg season HRs. He never hit one off Benton or Leonard, but he did off Bobo--6-5-1953. Trouble is the Bobo was Hollomon!

Posted By: <b>jeffdrum</b><p> A quick trip to Wikipedia and Al Benton is the only pitcher to have pitched to The Mick and The Babe. HRs have nothing to do with it!
