QUESTION #17

Since the advent of interleague play, only two NL players have hit 4 HRs in a single season while in the lineup as the DH.  One of them was Kyle Schwarber for the Cubs in 2017.  The other is a future Hall of Fame.  Who was it?

Ortiz?

I don't think he was ever in the NL, was he?

 

In any case, it's not him.

No to both.

He spent most of his career in the AL.

Nope.  I know this is tricky, because it's a weird record.  Most HRs in a season at DH for an NL player is pretty niche.

He spent years as an Indian.

Shoot.  He's already in the Hall.  I didn't think he was eligible yet. I'm an idiot.

Not checking my work very well during family Easter.

Here we go.

QUESTION #18

There have been 12 seasons with a Triple Crown winner, but there have been only ten players to win the Triple Crown.  Name the two who have won it twice.
