QUESTION #19

Mickey Mantle is probably the best switch-hitting slugger ever, but he only played in the AL.  What player holds the NL record for most home runs in a season AND a career as a switch hitter?

Chipper Jones?

BOOM 

From '92 to' 96, a Dodgers player won the NL ROY each of the five years.

Name those Dodgers rookies.

That's four of them, yep.  That's pretty close to the order, too (Piazza and Mondesi might be switched, but I'm not sure).

One left.

Gotcha.  Yeah, I couldn't remember.

Can’t think of other 

Beltre was later I think...Pedro didn’t win before Karros I don’t think. Can’t think of pitchers?

Konerko in time frame close, not sure he ever won 

I looked it up. I wouldn’t have gotten him....but I nailed the other 4 in order without thought

I remember it because they broke their own record with him.

Also, I had his rookie card.

Todd Hollendsworth? Only think it’s him because I know he won ROY from his time in Cleveland. Not sure who he started on or what year though. Know he had a long stretch with LAD.

Wow, I have no recollection of him being an Indian. Had to look it up. 2006

I forgot he was also a Red for about a second.
