Baseball Trivia: Do you think you know baseball?

Question

First with all 6 gets 10 points:

1. Name the only player to get two triples in his only game as a major leaguer.

2. Name the only pitcher with a double-digit strikeout total in his only major league game.

3. Name the only player to make it to the majors from Bridgewater State College.

4. How many people can say they've been a major league teammate of Barry Bonds?

5. How many games out of first place were the Keokuk Westerns at the end of the 1875 season, and where did they play their home games?

6. In 1961, Frank Robinson won the N.L. MVP, taking 15 out of the 16 first-place votes. Name the player who received the lone other first-place vote.

Lazy bastards. And Saaphari won Charm School, not Lielene.

All this info can be found on one site: Baseball-reference.com

Tim and Kieffer got the last four correct. (Keif spelled a name wrong but I know he was looking in the right place.)

Hint for the first two: There is a phrase used to describe someone comes up to the big leagues for a game or two, then is sent down or retires. This is the section of B-R.com where these two can be found.

Actually Keif missed the number Bonds' teammates, so he's got three out of six so far.

1. Ed Irvin, 1912 Detroit Tigers.
2. George Knight, 1875 New Haven Elm Citys (struck out 12).

4. 422, through the 2007 season to date.
