Old Judge Trivia Question Thread

[Misunderestimated]

One is Mullane (pretty sure).... another should be McCormick and.Another might be Bobby Matthews (I'm not sure if he ran up enough innings in the leagues that count)... That's just three. After that Im totally guessing...

You have three of the four, Brian, well done! Only one to go

[spec]

How about Gus Weyhing?

[oldjudge]

The best pitcher I can think of not on the list is Charlie Buffington, but I don’t know if he pitched long enough. In his day he was the equal on any pitcher.

[BobbyStrawberry]

spec, you got it! Weyhing is correct. Here is the list:

1. Pud Galvin 6003.1 (!)
2. Kid Nichols 5067.1
3. Tim Keefe 5049.2
4. Bobby Mathews 4956
5. Mickey Welch 4802
6. John Clarkson 4536.1
7. Count Mullane 4531.1
8. Old Hoss Radbourn 4527.1
9. Gus Weyhing 4337
10. Jim McCormick 4275.2

Charlie Buffinton is a few spots further down with 3404....not bad either!

Every 19th Century buff knows that Old Hoss won 59 (or 60) in 1884
some other Old Judge subjects hold less known single season.... records name the following:
WAR overall in a season:
Runs in a season:
RBI/Per game in a season
Pitcher Strikeouts in a season
Pitcher WAR in a season
Pitcher ERA in a season
Wild Pitches in a season
Put outs as 2nd Basemen
Stolen Bases in a season
--
Most of these are HOF greats but a few aren't famous at all...

I think WAR is Keefe. Probably pitcher WAR too.
