Delay trivia, who has the highest single season batting average in Pittsburgh history?

[nate82]

Without looking it up I am going to guess Kendall?

I'm guessing it's not Honus Wagner?

Correct, its also not the next guy you are thinking. The answer is in the HOF

[markedman5]

When was the last time Weeks hit a line drive? I seriously can't remember...seems like nothing but K's and week grounders.

[markedman5]

Not Clemente?

I'm going to guess Honus Wagner beats out Clemente.

[topper09er]

Not Clemente?

 

someone else

[SterlingArcher]

I'd almost rather have another inning of figaro pitching than having to sit through a Gonzalez at-bat

[The stache]

Clemente's single season high was .357, so I knew it wouldn't be him. He's my second favorite all-time player behind Yount.

[AZBrewCrew]

So Bianchi was pulled in favour of Gonzalez. Seems Lucroy would have given a better shot at driving in a run than Gonzalez

[topper09er]

That Maldonaldo walk allows Hendo to maybe pitch 2 innings and starts the 12th with Aoki

[Cool Hand Lucroy]

Willie Stargell, I'd say.

 

Also, why not let Figaro hit? He's had an RBI every time up this year, right?

[nate82]

Kendall had two years where he hit .320 and .327 with the Pirates.

 

And after looking it up I don't think anyone will be able to guess it.

[The stache]

Wagner's career high was .381 in 1900.

[afeter]

Dave parker

[The stache]

Huh, missed it by 4 points. I'm surprised. I knew Arky was a Hall of Famer, but never imagined he hit that high in one season.

[markedman5]

Paul Waner? Was he on the Pirates? I'm just guessing now

[TURBO]

OH

 

MY

 

GOD!

[topper09er]

The answer hit .385 in 1935. He is probably most famous for Bill James ranking him the #2 SS of all-time behind Honus Wagner in his original BJHBA

[AZBrewCrew]

Ryan Braun is good at the pastime known as baseball.

[The stache]

Ryan Braun, what a catch!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[topper09er]

Paul Waner? Was he on the Pirates? I'm just guessing now

 

Good guess, but the answer is Arky Vaughan
