TRIVIA Quiz....Correct guess wins T206 card

Posted By: john/z28jd

The lists everyone used only included the NL and the AL players who did it. Griffin and Tebeau were both in the American Association when they accomplished this feat which was still a major league back then. By saying "Major league" Ted included the American Association,National Association,Union Association and Players League into the equation. It just happened to not occur until 1887 and then it happened twice in the same day.

The fact I knew it offhand just means I read too much baseball. It should also be noted that most sources that know Griffin accomplished this feat don't even recognize Tebeau accomplishing it. At the time they did it,no one knew that it hadn't been done before.
