Yep, the newer the expansion teams the harder it is for me to think of players that might fit the grid. Today's was a lot of fun in not always going with your first inclination for a spot because that player might fit better somewhere else in the grid.

Babe Ruth only had 2873 hits?!?

That means 1/4 of his hits were HRs

Ruth was primarily a pitcher for the first few seasons of his career, only in the last couple of seasons with the BoSox did he start getting 300+ ABs a season. Also, if I remember correctly, there was at least one season fairly early in his time with the Damn Yankees that his "excesses" limited his playing time as well as his performance on the field.

Frank Tanana did not play for the Twins. But he did play for six other teams. Ugh.

Disappointing rarity score but it is always good to put an Aggie on the Grid.

You guys are amazing. These grids garner only 10-15% immaculate scores each day so you guys crank them out way above the norm. And you don't use Baseball Reference or cheat sheets like many probably do. I wish my memory was that good, haha!

Got lucky with E Jackson, complete shot in the dark. This is the first time I don't have a clue about a player that is one of the top picks on the gird. Seriously who is Sean Doolittle?

Thankfully went with Deer instead of Stairs. And always love an Astros/Rangers spot, can really pad the rarity score.

Doolittle was the closer on the Nats WS team.

Managed to get 6 former Astros on the grid. Probably could have done more if I really thought about it.

I love that!

I also just noticed today if you click on the team or category, it gives you details of what qualifies

Freakin had the wrong box highlighted on Al Kaline. Then missed on CIN/CLE. Brutal today.
