"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>bruce Dorskind</b><p>Who Am I?<br /><br />I am the only pitcher among the the top 50 in complete games<br />never to appear on a baseball card by myself.<br /><br />Tell your fellow Board Members who I am, and why my picture<br />never made it onto a piece of old cardboard. Ah to have "a card of my own"<br /><br /><br />Bruce Dorskind<br />America's Toughest Want List<br /><br /><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>I'm thinking Will White.

Posted By: <b>MikeU</b><p>Al - Did you get my e-mail for the address change?<br /><br />

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>Darn it all, Kevin got to it before I did, and, most annoying of all, A.l got to the JOKE before I did! I was really looking forward to that one!!!<br /><br />Will White, my #1 <i>player</i> choice to be enshrined.

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>ROBERT ADAMS JR</b><p>When I look back at Pud Galvin and Jack Clarkson's stats as far as complete games and innings pitched it is simply amazing . 600 innings at any level is astounding .

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>Up until the clue I was leaning towards Pink Hawley. He has a Cameo Pepsin pin, but no card of which I am aware. Once the brother clue was offered, I knew it couldn't be Pink Hawley because his brother, Blue, died too young to have any card.

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Andy Baran</b><p>I could be wrong, but I believe this is the first time that we have seen the word "I" in a post from WE the Bruces.<br /><br />Sorry, I couldn't resist. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Andy- so you're suggesting that Bruce pose the question as "who are we?" That would be plain confusing. <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
|
"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>To make it even <i>more</i> confusing:<br /><br />"Some of you have my brother's card."<br /><br />So, if I am clear on this, Deacon White is one of the Bruces?

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>Okay, riddle me this:<br /><br />7 players in MLB history have finished their careers with a lifetime BA above .340 and 1500 RBI's. Name them. <br /><br />This is an easy one to look up, so try not to as all cheaters burn in eternal hellfire (I'm not positive that's true, but for the sake of this question, let's assume it is). <br /><br />Note: the first 6 are pretty easy, the 7th one surprised me.

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Jon Canfield</b><p>I would assume Ruth, Cobb and J. Jackson.<br /><br />Edited to add: I'm way off with Jackson.<br />======================================<br />For the premier online souce of information on baseball-related cigarette packs, visit <a href="http://www.baseballandtobacco.com" target="_new" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www.baseballandtobacco.com</a" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.baseballandtobacco.com</a</a>>

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>How about Gehrig, Hornsby and Sisler for the other easy ones?<br /><br />I have to edit, too! Am surprised that Sisler didn't even have 1200 RBI.
|
"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>4 correct so far:<br /><br />Ruth<br />Cobb<br />Hornsby<br />Gehrig<br /><br />Sisler is incorrect. With the exception of about 4 years in his prime, he ribbied like a little girlieman.
|
"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>WIlliams has to be in there. <br /><br />Edit: I bet you the one that surprised you was Heilmann. It took me until now ti think of him, but I bet that's who it is. I can't come up with the last one--bet I'll kick myself once somebody says it.<br />

"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Jim VB</b><p>Anthony, <br /><br />I won't play because I am the kind that has to cheat, but wanted to let you know that this research ruined my day!!!<br /><br />Without giving away any answers, I was very upset to find that Mickey Mantle was passed this year by Jeff Kent on the career RBI list. What is the matter with baseball these days? I want a recount!!!
|
"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Peter Thomas</b><p>Easy: Ruth, Gehrig, Cobb, Williams, Hornsby, Speaker Not so easy: Harry Heilmann
|
"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Fred C</b><p>Ok, here's the next tough question - <br /><br /><br />Who was the first pitcher depicted on an OJ to wind a Cy Young award? Ok, shoot me... <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>
|
"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>Anthony S.</b><p>Jodi you got #5 and #6, and yes Heilmann was the surprise.<br /><br />Speaker makes 7.
|
"Who Am I?"
Posted By: <b>howard</b><p>Not sure I would have come up w/Heilmann but the other six are probably Ruth, Gehrig, Hornsby, Cobb, Williams and Speaker.
