In honor of Azdrubal Cabrera's unassisted triple play last week, let's see some of the other guys:

Pauli Hines (1878, but disputed)
Neal Ball (1909)
Wamby (1920)
George Burns (1923)
Ernie Padgett (1923)
Glenn Wright (1925)
Jimmy Cooney (1927)
Johnny Neun (1927--the next day!)

If you have to show a Mickey Morandini card, go ahead, but let's try to keep it vintage.

And what are the odds of Cleveland having made 3 of the 14 20th-century plays, and having another two (Burns, Neun) made against them?

Bonus trivia: Which two of these guys (the 8 here) were traded for each other?

Second bonus trivia: Which UTP guy (hint: not on the list above) is part of the only pair of players to be traded for each other twice in the same season?
