Interesting 

I had a hard time believing he did better than Quisenberry.  I looked at Quisenberry’s stats and saw that he and I are three weeks apart in age.

Damn. You’re awesome cat_lover!

I would’ve guessed Buhner higher...knew he had 3 straight 40 HR and played 15 years or so....would’ve thought about 350

That’s the thing that sticks out to me, too. I remember when in the mid 90’s, Buhner was a very feared hitter to us Tribe fans. 

Question #163

Two players in MLB history have hit a HR for a Kansas City team AND won 2 MVP Awards

Name them 

I’m gonna go with Roger Maris, for one. 
 

KC was known as a feeder system for the Yankees back in the day. 
 

edit: interestingly, I forgot that the Indians actually had him first. 🤦

Did Juan Gone ever play for KC? Pretty sure he got 2 MVPs right before joining Tribe
