First, the answer to the last trivia question, which was Carroll Hardy, a former Boston Red Sox backup outfielder, pinch-hit for two current/future Hall of Famers while with the Boston Red Sox, and for one of the Hall of Famers, it is/was the only time this player has/d been pinch-hit for. Who are/were they?
Tom A nailed the question, becoming the first Fire Brander to get more than one trivia question right. Maybe I should get a leaderboard going and tally up the totals at the end of the year for a grand prize? That would be cool, right? Anyways, Tom guessed Ted Williams and Carl Yastrzemski, and he is absolutely correct. Hardy also pinch hit for Roger Maris in his career… pretty neat, I think. Tom wins the right to have the Ceremonial First pitch of next week’s podcast where Fireside Chats tackles a topic of your choosing to kick off the show.
Here’s the trivia question for you today… winner gets to select the next poll question.
The trivia question: Fenway Park is the only stadium where you can get a ground-rule triple. How?
HONOR CODE: Don’t look it up in a search engine by searching for ground-rule triple or Fenway ground rules, etc. Do the legwork and go to the site yourself.
