Agree with Peter. Much too difficult. It's not trivia but minutiae.

George Will published 'Opening Day Quiz' in both 2015 and 2017 in the Washington Post. Need to ask my granddaughter to teach me how to paste. Meantime, both good and readily available via Google.

That quiz is wicked tough. It took me until the 'last name Jones' section to feel like I knew anything at all. Yowza. But it's actually fun to research the answers to a lot of the questions. Wikipedia is a godsend.

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.
