This is Humbugardy. I'm your host, Alex Scorebard.

In '73,
Hank's 40 dingers
Were third on his team
Behind these heavy swingers

Bravery	Haiku Trades	Same School	"Tools" of Ignorance	Literary Baseball	Ballpark Franks
100	Derek Smart	Jen	Baby Maddux	Humma Kavula	metfaninalaska
Baby Maddux	200	200	Cliff Corcoran	TFD	MattPat11
Dan Lucero	TFD	Joe	For The Turnstiles	Ryan Wilkins	300
Shaun P	Jacob L	T J	Bob Timmerman	Bob Timmerman	400
Rorschach	Next...	Philip Michaels	Shaun P	500	500

Note: Using the web to search is cheating...you gotta know (or guess) off the top of your head.

So much time to answer (for once), and so little knowledge to do it with.

My contribution -- seems a little early for Dale Murphy.

Who were Davey Johnson, Dusty Baker, and Darrell Evans?

Who were Davey Johnson and Darrell Evans?

5. JH in DC

Who were Eddie Matthews and Darrell Evans?

Crap, I totally blew the "third" on his team thing. Just in case Shaun picked the wrong two:

Who were Darrell Evans and Dusty Baker?

7. Cliff Corcoran

Now that I think about it (still haven't looked anything up). Dusty didn't hit 40 that year, did he? Shaun wins. I'm so ticked at myself.

Shaun P, you are correct. Not only that, but you are now in first place with 900 points. The board is yours...

9. Shaun P

Thanks, Alex. I'll take Haiku Trades for 500, please.

Cliff, I know how you feel - in Same School for 400, Bob Timmerman provided a correct answer in the wrong meter. I didn't realize it, or I could have answered two hours before TJ did. Kicked myself for that one.
