1) Todd Jones wasn’t a catcher ;-) I have no idea what this answer is. Interested to find out.
2) Four: Greenberg, Gehringer, Rogell, and Goose Goslin
3) I remember hearing Cleveland. Don’t remember what the date was. I was probably -65 years old at the time.
4) June 15, 1948
5) Harwell
about the Tigers with 100 + rbi in '34
That Tigers infield holds the record for rbi , 462. Greenberg 139, Gehringer 127, Rogell 100, and Marv Owen the thirdbaseman had 96.
Re: Answers
1) I said Mickey Cochrane, not Todd Jones ;)
2) Can’t believe I forgot about Goose Goslin
3) Will take your word for it
5) Bob Scheffing joined Ernie in the radio booth for the 1964 season.
