Memorial weekend trivia
Just for fun (no prize beyond impressing your friends):
Two questions about going out in style, one easy and the other (probably) a lot harder: 1. What player led his league in Slugging Average for the first and only time in his last season in MLB? 2. What player made the All-Star team for the first and only time in his last season in MLB? (There may be more than one, but I don't think there are many.) Hint: Neither of the cases I have in mind resulted from the player's untimely death. Last edited by timn1; 05-26-2018 at 10:17 AM.

yep - Ortiz
Told you that was easy!
The All-Star should be more challenging- A hint, but it might also mislead (a counter-hint?): The All-Star's non-reappearance in the majors had a lot to do with his patriotic feeling and a desire to do something for his country (but this was not to join the US military). Also, it's not prewar.... Last edited by timn1; 05-26-2018 at 11:43 AM. Reason: hint
