Default Ed Delahanty....2-part, Tues Nite Trivia Quiz....and, show us your Delahanty stuff
I will award the Trivia King trophy to Frank W.

Frank W's response is just shy of the answer I was expecting. Once Ed Delahanty combined his mind with his physical skills to play the game, he was a
tremendous ballplayer.

For Big Ed's best 13 seasons of his 16-year career his Batting Average was .364 (only 2-points shy of Ty Cobb's .366 BA). And both of them batted 400+
three times.


The Brothers Delahanty......


Tom….1894, 1896-1897





Joe…… 1907-1909




Jim…… 1901-1902, 1904-1912, 1914-1915
x
.




Frank…... 1905-1908, 1914-1915
.

Default Two-part Quiz, Tues Nite Trivia ? ?
Peter

You alluded to it.

Frank elaborated more regarding Delahanty's hitting performance.

Furthermore, Frank also responded to the 2nd part of this quiz.


Anyhow, you get awarded the runner-up Trophy.

Default Ed Delahanty....2-part, Tues Nite Trivia Quiz....and, show us your Delahanty stuff



Ed Delahanty was a 20 year old rookie in 1888 when he joined the Philadelphia Phillies. His first 5 years he averaged only .270 BA.

Then in 1893, he hit for a .368 BA. For the following 10 years of his career, Big Ed consistently hit well above .300 (including .400+
in 3 of 11 seasons).

I calculated his Batting Average for these 11 years, and it is an amazing .373

So much for either our math skills or reading comprehension or both.

It was fun but I was lost

Hi Jay

I like it, too.....it's pretty nice, as far as reproductions go.
