Sporcle Saturday: Opening Day starters, part III

Happy St. Patrick's Day, and welcome once again to the Opening Day starters series. This week, we'll be taking a look at the players who roamed the outfield for the White Sox going back to 1990. The star pupils scoring 100% from last week included: asinwreck, pnoles (who took down KenWo!), Brett R. Bobysud, and ecivokrak. Good job, all! Obviously, there are three positions instead of two for each year, so we've got a lengthier quiz: 84 names. Good luck!

Quiz Parameters

    • As always, first and last names accepted, in addition to just the last names.
    • I’ve given you fifteen minutes to attempt completion.
    • As hints I’ve provided the date and the position of the player, and names are grouped by year.

Useless information to amaze, annoy, confound, and/or confuse your friends:

    • The highest WPA of the players on this list: .273 out of right field in 1991. Their line? 3-4, 2 HR, 5 RBI and 3 runs scored in a 9-1 thrashing of the Orioles.
    • The lowest WPA of the players on this list: -.255 from left field in 2009. That was good for 0-4 and 1 K in a 4-2 victory over the Royals.
    • All of the players on this list have combined for 14 home runs on Opening Day.
