Trivia Road Show

[Toy Cannon]

I had fun going to Boston yesterday with my Trivia Road Show so I thought I'd continue with this little venture. Today we stop in the beautiful state of Colorado to visit with our buddies Durango and RockieBill:

Who is the only Rockie hurler to toss more than one shutout in a single season?

[Durango53]

Well you will have to go a bit north to find me. :D Up one more state.

But I am game.......

Roger Bailey should fit your bill.......

Here is one back. I heard this one on the radio the other day and knew the answer right off the bat and people that veiw the Rockies forum more than avg. should know this also because we bring it up now and then.....

Who is the only visting pitcher to throw 2 shut-outs in Coors.

Who is the only visting pitcher to throw 2 shut-outs in Coors.
Tom Glavine?

[Durango53]

Yep.....

[Toy Cannon]

What Rockies player once stole 2nd, 3rd and home in the same inning. Also name the pitcher and catcher who he victimized.

[Durango53]

Wow I dont know that one at all. Never knew that even happened. But there are those dark years with my Rockies baseball when I was in the military and I could hardly get any news. But I will see what I can find.

:wave1: I know! I know!

Dale, is he the last NL'er to steal 6 in a game? Or has someone done that since?

[Toy Cannon]

I'm almost positive he was the last to steal 6 in a game. He was definately the last to steal 2nd, 3rd and home in the same inning. The AL record is 6 I believe and the Nl is 7, but that was before 1900.

Dude also hit the second home run in Rockies franchise history.

With B-Fat hitting the first.:wave1:

[PopTop]

With B-Fat hitting the first.:wave1::laff: We always called him Pinhead.

[PopTop]

The umpires who called the player safe at each base were Joe West (2B), Jeff Kellogg (3B) and Jerry Layne (home).

And what a crazy game this was overall...10 homers, 12 steals, 31 runs, 38 hits (17 extra bases), 5 errors, 11 pitchers (none pitching scoreless ball), 11 walks.......and it was nothing-nothing after the first inning! :eek:

[Durango53]

Ok the hints are way to much now......... :D

It would HAVE to be Eric Young.

Pitcher and catcher are easy. One of the worst defensice catchers ever, especially at throwing out runners, and a pitcher who took forever to deliver the ball. Nono/Piazza

[Durango53]

Willie I would about bet the farm that Eric Young hit the first HR for the Rockies. He could have hit the second also but that I dont know.

[Durango53]

Never mind I am wrong... Eric Young hit the first HR in Denver for the Rockies....

[Durango53]

First Home Run Dante Bichette off B. Saberhagen (seventh inning) April 7, 1993 at New York

[PopTop]

First Home Run Dante Bichette ...That's him, Pinhead or B-Fat, take your pick :D

[Durango53]

Havnt finished the question there huh?

I looked it up and the pitcher was Nomo so the catch would have to be Piazza. (I just saw the pitcher)

I went ahead and gave the answer back on page 1. Everybody ran on Nomo with that slow delivery and a dead man could run on Pizza Boy. Still, 2nd, 3rd and home in the same inning is quite a feat.:thumbsup:

Last question: Who is the only Rockie to receive 3 intentional walks in one game?

[PopTop]

Big Cat?

[Toy Cannon]

Big Cat?

:cat: :cat: :cat: :cat:

Andres Galaraga 4-30-93 against the Marlins. I guess the Fish didn't want the Big Cat anywhere near them.:D

I think I'll take the Road Show to Chicago or New York tomorrow.:notme:

[Durango53]

Thanks for coming!!!!!
