Babe Ruth
Johnson (Walter?)
Ty Cobb
Mickey (Mantle - she likes the name Mickey)
Williams (Ted)
Willie (Mays?)
Robinson (Jackie)

and then onto the Padres connection:

Macchiato (her nickname for Manny Machado)

Soda (Juan Soto - she knew someone with that nickname when younger)

Kid that doesn't play now (eventually came up with Tatis)

Guy that has statue at San Diego ballpark and has son that is broadcaster (eventually came up with Tony Gwynn's name)

Hernandez or guy with name that starts with an 'H' that made it to HOF (she was thinking Trevor Hoffman)


Pretty good for someone who mostly enjoys going to the the ballpark to watch the crowd and the nice sunsets during night games, and once used her foot to kick a foul ball coming our way (she grew up with soccer, not baseball)
