Trivial Pursuit - White Borders
 
What Minor League team in the White Border era had 6 players in the same year depicted on cards in the T206 set?

Name the team, the year and the players.

The first correct answer wins absolutely nothing.

Tony,

You did not specify a year, but I assume you are referring to the 1909 Rochester Bronchos. You are correct that there were 6, but you are incorrect because there were 7. You omitted Pattee.

Harry was a regular on the 1909 Bronchos. In fact he played in 155 games, four more than the team played (90-61).:eek::eek::D

There may be multiple answers with exactly 6, but Rochester is not one of them.

Still looking for one with 6.

Hint: Try the swamp

Post #6 is a valid answer

Not sure if Kansas City qualifies as a swamp though. See hint Post #5



Post #7 is under review from the booth

Frank should disqualify you. You did not read the question - minor league team.

Michael, the thorough booth review agrees with your findings, but there were multiple fouls on the play. Wagner and Cobb were never teammates, etc.
Need I go further. The answer is in the swamp.
