Tuesday Trivia: Home Runs in all MLB parks

[RCMcKenzie]

My right answer is also wrong, then. I thought I read Mike Cameron.

From your clue, is it Rizzuto?

Good guesses, but this guy was more of a radio personality than a tv guy.

I had to look it up because I thought it was Ichiro but that was wrong. Crazy.

I am out I thought it would have be Ralph Kiner but interested to see more clues or the answer

[ParisianJohn]

That's a good one...

I thought about Frank Robinson as he hit a couple hundred homers for the Reds and Orioles and would have gone deep in every MLB park in his day. But when I saw the clue about announcing I knew it wasn't him. I guess it isn't Uecker!!

I definitely need more clues if someone else doesn't swoop in and figure it out.

To give you a sense of the time period in which he played/lived, he sold Babe Ruth a $50,000 life insurance policy while a player (he had a second job as many did back then). The beneficiaries were Mrs. Ruth and their adopted daughter, Dorothy. That same year, he trailed only Babe Ruth in on base percentage. Babe's was .545 and his was .481


Another clue: His 1960 Fleer card actually had a picture of his teammate Larry Woodall on it. The error wasn't discovered until 2010, showing that even some of the greats can be forgotten to time. The two do look slightly similar, but not enough to justify the mix-up.

Are you sure about this? When I looked it up the answer was a much more modern guy.

Ahhh! Now I know who it is for sure!!! And the data is verifiable.
