Default Trivia question - most career leadoff home runs
Kyle Schwarber set the single season record tonight for leadoff home runs. Who are the career top 10 leaders for leadoff home runs?

Alfonso Soriano is 3rd with 54 (and held the single season record of 13 before Schwarber), and Craig Biggio is 4th with 53.

Did the Yankees bat Judge leadoff at times or am I making that up?

Bobby Bonds, Paul Blair, Dick McAuliffe, Curt Flood and Lou Brock are not in the top 10.

There will be dozens of folks admitting - many years later - that they were at a White Sox game in 2024.

Here's a hint for the last answer (6th on the list). He's a second baseman who is retired.

Not Sandberg. There was an earlier hint that the player's career started in 2000 or later.
