Could anyone help me with these questions. Thanks a lot. By the way the 20th century is from 1900-2000.
1) What pitcher holds the record for hitting the most batters in a season during the 20th century and how many batters were beaned?

2) How many players hit 40 or more home runs in a season during the 20th century?

3) Who was the first relief pitcher to ever pitch in an all-star game?

4) Who was the only outfielder to throw out 3 runners at home plate in one game in the 20th century?

5) What American League pitcher holds the league record for most shutouts in a season during the 20th century?

6) Hack Wilson hit an amazing 191 RBIs in a season to set that record. What player is the Major League baseball runner-up with 184?

7) How many teams did Cy Young play for throughout his illustrious career?

8) In 1961 when Roger Maris topped Babe Ruth's season home run record, how many times was he intentionally walked?

9) Who is the only third baseman to win 4 batting titles during the 20th Century and in what years?

10) In 1988 the Dodgers' Bob Welch compiled a pitching record of 15-9. That same year, fellow great Fernando Valenzuela pitched a record of what?
