The Baseball Who Am I Game

bwburke94 · 06-17-2010, 06:58 PM

I'll give you three clues about a baseball player, and you have to guess who he is.

1. "I" have been on the roster of three World Series winning teams.
2. "I" joined each of those teams two years after they won a World Series.
3. "I" have only one testicle.

No joking around ("You are bwburke94", etc.) allowed. "I" is in quotes for a reason.

Just to make sure, the player joined a team two years after it won a World Series and then the team won another World Series with the player on its roster?

Mike Lowell

"I" never realized he actually played some for the Yankees, always assumed he was traded before ever reaching the majors. Interesting game but "I" also assume there's a story behind this

bwburke94 · 06-18-2010, 07:23 PM

Correct. If you're interested in reading about Lowell, he wrote an autobiography in 2008.

He has one testicle? I was going to say John Kruk.

I am still active.
I played In baseball hell last season.
I've been on a world series representative each of the last 3 seasons.

Easy, I know.

2. I have been a member of 4 different organizations in my professional career

Reggie Jackson.

This is pretty far stretched.

The World Series involved the Yankees...but he didn't necessarily PLAY for the Yankees.

Jackson is related distantly to Barry Bonds and Bobby Bonds
Jackson played in several World Series' that involved the Yankees
Jackson played in four different organizations (I had to check this one).

Nope but you did pick up on one of the key points here (not necessarily playing for the Yankees in the particular World Series). But the key is that he has at least three other MLB players in his family- that means at least four total players in the family counting himself, as far as I know there are only three possibilities with the 4 organizations being the distinguishing point (and here's a hint, he didn't actually make it to the majors with the first organization).

Think recently, very recently.

Best...trivia...question...ever.

We were born on the same day, different years.

We were born in the same small town in Pennsylvania.

We have over 6400 hits between the two of us.
