O/T: Can You Name The Members of the Baseball Hall of Fame?

183. Weak on Negro Leagues and forgot some obvious ones.

Peter- 183 makes you a Super Chief, or something like that. I was doing well for 15 minutes and then started getting blocks. At one point I was running through the Old Judge and T206 sets, then all the Topps sets, alphabetically, and still missed easy ones.

Well, after a few tries I did memorize all 253 Perhaps they consider the Wright's executives or managers only? All managers and executives are not included.

James- I don't know how you can get them all, that's almost impossible. Once you get down to say the last five, how do you come up with those names?

And while Harry was mostly an executive, I assumed George got in primarily for his playing career. They also wouldn't accept Mack or McGraw.

Barry,

As a writer for H&S, I see so many cards that come through all the time, that perhaps it's just second nature? Perhaps I just have a good memory? I got all 195 countries and was able to point them out on a map too. I dunno, maybe I'm just a baseball nut

[barrysloate]

Maybe you have a photographic memory?

[Orioles1954]

I think I do. My best friend called and tried to get me on that "Stump the Schawb" show on ESPN years ago. He called me "Rain Man with social skills" Now, if only I could remember my wife's birthday and anniversary. I think they're in June or July or something.
