Sporcle Saturday: A double and a triple

Good morning!

A bit of random quiz for you, this morning. While running some Stathead queries for something completely unrelated I ran across a bit of an oddity: over the past four seasons, the White Sox have had exactly one (1) player per season log a game where they recorded at least one double and one triple. For context, 22 MLB teams in 2025 had two or more players accomplish the feat, so it isn't as though it's some exceedingly rare occurrence.

Still, it provides some good fodder for an offseason Sporcle!  Your task for today, then: identify those players who have accomplished this feat, dating back to 1980. In all, there are 171 entries: how many can you name? Good luck!

Quiz Parameters

  • I've allotted 15 minutes for completion attempts.
  • For hints, I've provided the date of the game and the position of the player during that game.

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

  • The White Sox are 143-28 in such games.
  • The most RBI in a game from a player on this list is 6, a 14-3 rout of Cleveland on 5/27/2000.
  • The most total bases in one of these games? 12, an 8-3 victory over Seattle on 9/24/1977.
