Continuing our theme here on Sporcle Saturday with reader requests, asinwreck asked a few weeks ago for a Sporcle which examined the singles leaders in franchise history.
Once again, I'm happy to oblige: the only hitch was to determine where the cut-off should be. Number of singles? Number of players? In the end, I decided to go with number of singles, specifically at least 300 singles in Sox history for a total of 114 players. How many can you name? Good luck!
Quiz Parameters
- Because this is such a large quiz and also spans franchise history, I've allotted the full 20 minutes for completion attempts.
- For hints, I've provided tenure with the team (does not separate if a player left and returned to the team, though), number of hits, and position(s) played.
Useless information to amaze, annoy, confuse, and/or confound your friends and family:
- Every position on the diamond is represented here, including pitcher.
- Shortstop accounted for three of the first six names on the list.
- Catcher was represented (I thought) reasonably well, with nine names overall.
