	Hmmmph. Anyone else try "Cobb" about three times! Great to see Jim Rice & Norm Cash on here. Quiz is a home run.

	I really need to learn to read the whole question. It's four OR FEWER letters in their name. Totally missed those guys.

	I should have gotten Dunn and Ott. The rest were tricky. Happy to remember Norm Cash. Not many did.

	Wait a minute, this list can't be right, I remember calling lots of other players names with four letters through the course of any baseball season... :) Nice quiz!

	I was so indignant about Moises Alou not being on here until I saw he topped out at 39. Lousy quiz creator had to go and have the facts on his side.

	i was the same way with Jeff Kent, and found out he only got as high as 37.

	Thank goodness for my love of baseball trivia... And it doesn't hurt that Wally Post and Norm Cash were 2 of my dad's favorites...

	The four letters or fewer thing got me, too. I'm sure I would have gotten Lee and Ott if I had just read the directions! Still got a respectable eight.

	Can't believe I left out Johnny Mize. He's from the county where I grew up for heaven's sake and the only one on the list that I have personally met.

	Well, got three. The two obvious and the "crossword guy."

	how the hell did i forget jermaine dye and carlos pena. this just happened.

	Fact - Jim Rice lives in a town next to the town where Carlos Pena grew up. Nice seeing North Andover, MA and Haverhill, MA representing in the same quiz. Even better that it happens to be in a baseball quiz.

	Thanks everyone for the kind words. I can't take credit for coming up with the idea on my own - when I was a kid, a friend of my dad's told me about it. PS: I have tons of other baseball quizzes, so be sure to check them out if you liked this one: http://www.sporcle.com/user/deej/contributed

	Great quiz! What was the bonus answer? I typed in AROD, but it didn't come up.

	Great quiz. A tough one. 5 globes for you!

	Nice quiz. I missed that it said 4 letter OR LESS. I'd have gotten Lee and Ott had I paid attention.
