Continuing the 1980s theme here on Sporcle Saturday, we'll be taking a look this week at the pitchers who started at least one game for the White Sox during the '80s. There are a fair number of names on here that will be familiar: however, just like the starting pitchers of the 2000s, there are a lot that will be unfamiliar. I suspect this will be a challenge for many this week, so put on some Metallica and get to work: of the 52 names listed, how many can you get? Good luck!
Quiz Parameters
- I've allotted 15 minutes for completion attempts.
- For hints, I've provided the tenure of the player in question, and the number of games they started for the team.
Useless information to amaze, annoy, confuse, and/or confound your friends and family:
- In terms of decisions, White Sox starting pitchers went 653-678 during this decade.
- Their average ERA/FIP was 4.82 and 4.44, respectively.
- Their average slash-line against: .272/.348/.416. That matches exactly one player season in baseball history: Brook Jacoby in 1989, playing for the Indians.
