Gunpowder's Gold Star Trivia

[Rex]

If the 1B is what it looks like, I got a good laugh

[mister d]

Assuming my cheat check (looking at LFs in 1990) landed me on the right guy, I might hate him more than Jack Morris.

[EnochRoot]

LF is gonna be Rock Raines.

[Jerloma]

Just gonna give you the 1B since nobody's probably heard of him...

C - 20 Pudge
1B - 19 Joe Mother Humpin' Judge
2B - 20 Joe Morgan
3B - 20 Brooks Robinson
SS - 18 Luis Aparicio
LF - 17 (2 Tied) Bonds/
CF - Willie Mays
RF - 15 Roberto Clemente
SP - 14 Jack Morris

Not sure but he doesn't strike me as very hateable. Streak started in 91.

I hate to ask this while there is still one guess left on the other (I looked it up and I LOVE this answer), but I'll forget to.

Who was the starting pitcher for the Astros in their first game at Enron Field in 2000 (exhibition vs. Yankees)?

[Rex]

I don’t know if he was ever on the Astros, but trying to think of an answer that would be funny and relevant today, Pat Mahomes?

[mister d]

Biggio.

OK the answer's going to be Luis Gonzalez.

[A_B]

I'm guessing Nolan Ryan.

Doc Gooden

[A_B]

What the fuck is Joe Judge doing here.

Joe knows baseball. Hopefully more than he does football.

2B has me completely confused. That's a long time and it can't be Altuve. SS I'll go Swanson.

Hints:


2B - 8 War Pigs

So one of the right fielders played on 5 teams over the six years? That seems like a crazy stat. Gotta be the guy the Mets just signed, Soto?
