I 92’s Baseball Trivia....Hall of Fame thread

Question #192

This player post 1985 once had a 41 doubles season but only scored 63 runs....he is also the players with 500+ career doubles that his run total is closest to only doubling his double total.

Ex Dave Winfield 540 career doubles and 1669 career runs. So Winfield is nearly 600 runs over doubling his doubles total. The answer to this question is only 40 over, no one else within 100 and only 3 players within 150.

Garret Anderson 522 doubles only 1084 runs 

+40 Had a 56 doubles and 93 runs season which seems crazy....had a 49 and 80 and a 41 and 63. Slow and no one hit behind him

Eck, Hoffman, K-Rod, Gagne?

I dont think this is right because of injuries, but the should-be-hall-of-famer, Billy Wagner?

Kimbrel it is

Question #194

Two players in MLB history have had back to back 50 save seasons....name them

I dont think he got 50 a second time, but K-Rod nearly had 70 one year. So Ill guess him.

Almost positive Gagne did this

Jose Valverde? Lidge?

I knew it was over 60, because I watched that game on ESPN that he got 60. Had a decent chunk of time left in season, so figured he may push 70, but 62-63 seems about right.
