	You missing several players including Chone Figgins (.713), Vladimir Guerrero .753) and Orlando Cabrera (.647). Also, some of your numbers are off (ex. you have Eric Chavez listed as .775 when it is really .616)

	I once listened to an interview with Joe Mauer. Mr. Mauer had just gotten a hit that evening off of Mr. Rivera, and the reporter said something along the lines of "You must really like facing Rivera because you've gotten a bunch of hits off of him." Mr. Mauer's reply was something like, "Just because I can hit him doesn't mean I like facing him." Good quiz, GeorgiaPeach, like the way you made this. May I suggest you lighten up the writing in the third column? It's rather hard to see.

	I agree with Sinatra22's and Brett11's comments. Also, if you're going to list a team in the "Debut Year" column, list only the team that the player debuted with (e.g., Tejada did not play for both OAK and BAL in 1997, A-Rod wouldn't have faced Mo as a Yankee but would have as a Ranger, and Ortiz debuted with the Twins)

	My numbers are correct; Mr. sinatra did his search including postseason numbers. My listed source is done exclusive to regular season.

	My bad. I didn't realize this was limited to regular season.
