	Don't most quizzes have the asterisk for active players by the number and not concealed until you get it? I'm pretty sure that would have helped out on Q.

	thank you sporcle for accepting yaz for "Yastrzemski," would never have guessed the correct spelling of my grandfathers favorite baseball player of all time.

	Yeah, Utley should be on here.

	Blaise:	Jul 5th, 2009 at 17:05 GMT		2 points
	Chase Utley has 147 career home runs which would probably take the "U"

	bmo1616:	Jul 5th, 2009 at 17:08 GMT		3 points
	Chase Utley should be the answer for U. And Raul Ibanez is 3 HR's away from being the "I" home run champ. Btw, shouldn't those asterisks be on those "other" players on this list?

	MetaphysicalMan:	Jul 5th, 2009 at 17:44 GMT		31 points
	What? When I finally learned how to spell Yastrzemski, they are now accepting "Yaz"? Kill me.

	RC_Cola:	Jul 5th, 2009 at 17:52 GMT		3 points
	I just wish Gregg Zaun could make this list. Alas, with 83 career HR, the guy on this list has a stranglehold on that title.

	ToastyToci:	Jul 5th, 2009 at 18:33 GMT		7 points
	Even though I still got it, I am surprised Utley has the most for U. That autographed painting I have of him is even more valuable now :)

	I can never pull out Killebrw's name on these things. Tried every spelling of McGwire until I thought of Mays. Hooray for the non-roiders!!!! Utley is up now. Who was the U player before?

	Booger:	Jul 5th, 2009 at 20:54 GMT		11 points
	I've never believed Sporcle quizzes should be spelling quizzes (unless they ARE spelling quizzes), so I try to put in many alternate spellings. Yaz should be good enough.

	Be honest, who was thinking big Mo and got lucky?

	Loved this quiz, the alphabetizing means you really have to think about it. Inventive.

	Two random notes, just for myself: 1) Darrell Evans had 414 homers? Wow... didn't see that one coming. 2) How in the heck did I think of Pete Incaviglia?

	Sporehead:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 00:45 GMT		4 points
	Greg Luzinski stumped me. Good trivia question!

	btroup1:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 00:45 GMT		2 points
	GREAT idea. @Long Don: Stat based quizzes will be difficult for the Negro League players because the recordkeeping is spotty. Some have theorized that Josh Gibson hit 900 HR, but baseball historians theorize that much of that number came from barnstorming games.

	bmo1616:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 01:29 GMT		7 points
	Those guessing A-Roid* for R, he's not even 2nd, that would be Frank Robinson with 586.

	Very enjoyable quiz.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 02:27 GMT		3 points
	Cocky, Willie Upshaw was the "U" answer before. ... Btroup1, Negro League record keeping is probably not perfect but is not bad for league games after 1920. Gibson of course hit nowhere near 900 HR in league games (I think the seasons were only around 40 or 50 games long). While hardly anyone knows the actual numbers, you could have a quiz just to guess the names for most career HR (it's not Gibson!), wins, hits, etc. And you don't have to have statistical quizzes -- could have one to identify all Negro Leaguers who played in the Majors, for example.

	ha! I knew it was Inky but for the life of me couldn't spell is last name right so I just put "inky" and it accepted it. Thanks alot sporcle for allowing my favorite nickname when I was growing up in Arlington.

	A Negro League quiz would be nice, maybe on those in the HOF. But one about stats would be nearly impossible,

	jaymc:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 02:54 GMT		5 points
	Missed Quentin, thought that Jamie Quirk still held the record.

	wow there were so many Ms that would make the list if they had another last name... McGwire Mantle Maris McCovey Musial I wonder which letter has the most total HR production?

	btroup1:	Jul 6th, 2009 at 15:16 GMT		2 points
	@Knuckles - I agree that the idea for that type of quiz is a good one. If for no other reason, it would make us think of all baseball, instead of just MLB. I just wanted to make a point about stat-based quizzes, since it would start a whole lotta arguing. As a suggestion (if you haven't already), there is a HOF quiz that features the players who were voted into Cooperstown.

	Actually his stage name is 2Pac, with a 2...

	And Eddie Murray and Eddie Mathews for 'M' - both over 500 career HR

	I wonder how many Teddy Ballgame would have hit if he had not been in the servce TWICE during his prime years. He also lost !/2 season with a broken collar bone in an all star game! Prob lost 5 1/2 seasons.
