In todays MLB 20 game winners have become rare. Teams are fortunate to be able to say they have a 20 game winner. In 1971 Baltimore had 4. Jim Palmer, Dave McNally, Mike Cuellar and this fourth. For the right to ask the next mind buster of a question name this fourth 20 game winner. OFC

Carl Hubbell struck out 5 consecutive future hall of farmers in the 1934 All-Star game. Babe Ruth & Lou Gehrig were the 1st two. Al Simmons & Joe Cronin were the last two.

Who was Hubbell's 3rd victim in his Hall of Fame slaughter.

I saw this not long ago and just can't get the name in my head. OFC

He was sometimes called the right handed Babe Ruth. Would have tied Babe's 60 home runs in a season, if 2 weren't erased because of rain outs before the game went official during his 58 home run season.

Thurman Munson won the A.L. R.O.Y. in 1970. Another former Yankee won the award in 1971. Name him. OFC

He wasn't a Yankee when he won ROY but later became a Yankee. The way the question was worded is misleading. Sorry. OFC

Speaking of Yankees, they won the '77 ALCS also vs the Royals. Who grounded into a double play ending that series, giving NY the AL flag??? OFC
