Immaculate Grid (Now with NBA and NFL nerd options)

Guessed LaMarr Hoyt:

 

got an assist from TikTok Junk Wax Saul on Lenny Webster

 

Lots of 1980’s Ex-Pirates:

 

Lazy Sunday edition

 

Fuck 300 saves, lower the limit!

 

Kind of surprising how few older players there are between Detroit and St. Louis.

 

Going obscure is too easy. Now I’m going for biggest numbers:

 

Jeter only 7%. You could do better.

 

On second thought, Ruth was probably the best shot. Definitely overthought the recency bias there.

 

Yogi Berra was the most popular at 12%, so don’t feel too bad.

Shocked that Killebrew was so low.

 

thought about you and Ron Gant when playing it
much like Dave Winfield and herb.burdette

 

Man, I did a terrible job today.

 

Very weak

 

Damn. Really thought I had a chance of getting this one completely right.

Surprised that Cecil was more common than Miggy.

 

meh...

 

Yeah I thought for sure Miggy was going to have by far the highest number. I was shocked when I saw the Cecil %
