    On this date (4/16/2015) Giancarlo Stanton blasted his 155th homer as a Marlin.
    Who was the all time Marline HR leader when Stanton surpassed him?

    Rick Porcello is who you're looking for LKid.

    Batting title w 0 Homer's is Willie Keeler dead ball era (also had a 45 game hit streak I think)

    I errored at Seaver on the BoSox in 86 was a HOFer. Hernandez is not.

    NOW...here's a question!!!

    Who's the only guy to league all of MLB in average for a year and not win a batting title in that year??

    By qualify you need 502 plate appearances to win the title.

    Eddie Murray hit .330 in 1990 for LAD

    In 1990 Willie McGee was traded from STL to OAK after qualifying for the NL lead (.334). He then slumped on Oak hitting .274, dropping his total average.

    Brett hit .329 to take AL title
    McGee .324


    Who is only player to win batting titles in his 1st two seasons?

    Probably Jimmy Wynn but Glen Davis had 5 or 6 good seasons there. Either way it cant be a big number, as the boppers didnt come along till Enron Field.... I'd say Wynn with a total of maybe 115??

    Molly is correct.
    This is a good question, I pride myself on not cheating with these trivia questions so I need to think about this.
    Had to be a pitcher traded in mid season or so or something like that.
    I'll get it. (or not) lol
