1. Ted Williams

2. ? Don Drysdale I'm sure, Lefty Gomez I'm guessing and I'll go with Clemens but don't think he's the answer.

3. Bryce Harper isn't it? He did it at least once last year. If not him I'll guess Henderson.

Laley has them I think. My first thought was Feller but if he wasn't right I was going with Doc Gooden

Hammy has said, Feller had 100 wins before he was 23! A few times. So I suppose that could be 106, and someone else 107...lol

Piazza and Feller are correct.

A few more....

Among those with 3,000 hits, who has the FEWEST home runs?

Name the 4 players who hit World Series homers in 3 different decades.

Who was the first Manager to lead 3 Teams to pennants.

The Manager who, after Connie Mack and John McGraw, had the most consecutive years managing one team.

I know Gehrig didn't play in 3 decades.

Yogi has to be one for sure.

Eddie Murray pretty likely.
