Happy Saturday, folks, and welcome to a new year (and decade!) of Sporcle Saturday. Seeing as it's now the '20s, I thought I'd do a number-specific quiz to start the year off.

What we'll be looking at today are the players in franchise history who (at some point) wore the number 20 on their uniform. I'd wager most of you can name at least 5 on this list, but of the 30, how many can you get? Good luck!

Quiz Parameters

    • I've allotted 15 minutes for completion attempts.
    • For hints I've provided the year(s) they wore the number, and their position. Please note that the year(s) does not necessarily correspond with their entire tenure, just the time in which they wore #20.

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

    • There are a lot of famous MLB names who have worn 20 during their career. At the top (by bWAR): Frank Robinson, Mike Schmidt, and Miguel Cabrera (who wore 20 in 2003 with the Marlins).
    • At the bottom of the bWAR list: Doug Flynn, worth -6.9 wins in his career, wore #20 with the Detroit Tigers in 1985.
    • There are a total of 800 players in MLB history to have worn #20 at some point in their career.
