WE HAVE A WINNAH!

Tomthitrtysix, PM me your snailer and I'll get something out to you.

For question #3 I was looking for the MAJOR LEAGUE batting Triple Crown but I didn't word it that way. If I did the answer would be Mickey Mantle.
 
WOO HOO!!

I love baseball... the game, the history... and this was just as good a reason as any to research some stuff I didn't know about the game. Thanks again, Ray.

PM incoming.
 
I gotta admit I thought it would take a few more hours and guesses but I should have known based on my other contests that some of you folks are SHARKS when it comes to free stuff :p
