My dad got to enjoy 3 Reds World Championships by the time he was my age. So far, I've only gotten to enjoy one. Step it up Redlegs!
I got an 18 tied for lowest of those who will admit their scores. And I'll also admit that 4 of my correct answers were complete guesses, gosh I feel baseball stupid.

Hitters who avoid outs are the funnest.
37. only one i got right was an utter guess and that was where the first All-Star game was held.

yes, this really is how we make our living.
I got a 40.
I missed #12, 13, 16, 19, 24, 28, 31, 40, 43, and 46.
I should have gotten a couple more of those. I should have gotten Sam Crawford on #12, but I thought it was a trick, so I went with the player with whom I was least familiar (Wilson). I also should have gotten #13 (inexplicably, I said Baker). On #19, I correctly eliminated Hornsby because the qustion asked about the AL record, but chalk me up as one who answered Sisler. On #24, I knew that Mathewson was an inaugural HOFer, but I answered him anyway. (Dumb.) On #28, I answered Ott.

Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
Actually, I believe the question asked who had the highest BA in the American League - and with Lajoie, that would be correct.
Unfortunately, I picked Sisler, and I knew better.
I got 32 right, and am kicking myself for a couple of my answers (see: Sisler, highest AL BA).
39 -- I'm surprised.
When all is said and done more is said than done.
32, even though I must admit I had a slight advantage because I'm rewatching the Ken Burns Baseball series right now.

"My mission is to be the ray of hope, the guy who stands out there on that beautiful field and owns up to his mistakes and lets people know it's never completely hopeless, no matter how bad it seems at the time. I have a platform and a message, and now I go to bed at night, sober and happy, praying I can be a good messenger." -Josh Hamilton
Me too.
28. Should've been 29, but I misread a question.
29 - but I took like I took every test in school. As quick as possible.
True, I took it in aout 5 minutes and in review I saw about 4 questions I dropped the ball on big time.
Same strategy, and same score.I'm kicking myself over a couple, but I think 29 is respectable.
I got a 39, I'll take that any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
I only missed one question each on the 1845-1899 and 1920-1945 sections, three each on all the others.
42 - but 6 of them were correct guesses
so really, we'll mark it as 36
