Nope. Swelling posterior was Heinie Groh. And I couldn't figure yours out. I tried.

I believe there were better Unitas ones in the past.

Who is Cesar Geronimo?

Cesar Tovar (too far) works also. First one I've done where there were two answers, albeit an obscure one.

I wish I was sudden.

Barry,

The fact that you couldn’t figure mine out means that you don’t hang out in shitty taverns with gender neutral toilets. You’re a fine man.:D

New one

A. Rosemary’s run

loud curly costar

This was Curt Leskanic (less conic).

Hideki (rhymes with Ledecky) Irabu (I rob you).

Q: Tommy/Tammy John (after his second surgery):D

Testament-like labyrinth.

willie mays

I think it was used before, but how about ‘Who is Sterling Slaughter?’

Half right.

Bituminous mining train.

Who is Choo-choo Coleman?

Check!

How to hide a blotch

I’m probably going to make a fool of myself, but ‘Who is Barney Slaughter?’, as in the extinction of dinosaurs?

Country Slaughter.

Unshaven National Socialist.

Who is Harry Swacina?

Who is Harry Fritz?

Harry is right.

The judges will accept Swacina, that is brilliant, but not the one I had in mind.

Who is Harry Heilmann?

There you go.

coast sun effect pal

Who is Harry Swacina? I've never heard of him.

On the chance that a coast sun effect is a bob, I'll say Bob Friend. Where do you dig this stuff up?

Carlift angry stone.

negative

I figured I was wrong, but I don't know what coast sun effect means.

Maybe the words should be separated.

Jack Rothrock? Roth as in wrought?

Well done, I thought that would be a hard one. And wroth as in wrath.

A: Outback limo wager.

A: burger shack steakhouse

Who is Oscar Gamble?

This was Oddibe McDowell.

Reveal
 

A. Rosemary’s Run

Who is Herb Score?

Correct!

(Aus-car-gamble)

Any guesses on this player? (His first name is a verb.)

Also, his head sort of looks like a blooming onion.

I only know of him from collecting T210-8, but I checked, and he did have a short MLB career including (which I did not know) a couple of seasons as part of a 1st base platoon sharing the infield with Honus Wagner.

OK

Joey Amalfitano

so there

Thanks Glenn. This is the first time I've heard his name. I try to learn one new thing each day, and this was it.

Too obscure, but clever nonetheless.

I believe this was an answer that I authored. I have been through the thread seven times looking for my original post. It must have been deleted by the authorities. :eek::D:D

The time has come for the question. Drum Roll please.

Who is David Ortiz?

Explanatory footnote:

From 1997-2001 the APBA game company was in dispute with MLB regarding licensing for the use of players names. This did not involve all players and I'm a little fuzzy at this point regarding the details. Production of the game and player cards was not halted, but some players received fake names on APBA cards during some of those years.

A complete list of "fake names" is presented as evidence.

In 1997 the name David Ortiz does not appear on his APBA card. He became Dee Sunday for one year.:eek:

I was hoping to show the Dee Sunday game card in this thread, but I do not have it.

I thought there might be a table top gamer in the crowd (Butch where are you?) but alas no answer has been forthcoming.

I just threw the ‘Who is Dee Sunday’ randomly in this thread to mess with you and hopefully coax a hint out of you to solve the mystery in your other thread :D.
