OK:

Which Yankee won the Chalmers Award in 1927?

It was either Lou Gehrig or Babe Ruth...?

[BuckFoston]

OK:

Next: What position did Ron Guidry play in the re-do of the pine-tar game?

Was he in left? (I didn't look these up I'm just going off of things off the top of my head so I'm probably wrong)

[BuckFoston]

I take it I was wrong?..

It was either Lou Gehrig or Babe Ruth...?

Lou Gehrig...keep in mind, Ruth hit 60 HRs that year, but you were only allowed to win once in your career back then, and he won in 1923.

Was he in left? (I didn't look these up I'm just going off of things off the top of my head so I'm probably wrong)

No, but close.

I know this one, Guidry was in CF, and Mattingly played 2B as well.

Dang, so close but no cigar. I knew played in the OF I just couldn't remeber which one exactly. I knew it wasn't right so I guessed with left and unfortuntly it didn't pay off.

Nice.

Who had the highest batting average in the '77 WS (I think, it was the Dent year)

[BuckFoston]

Reggie Jackson! And nope, I didn't look it up. I had it memorized cause my dad has a picture of this team autographed by most of the players and he told me all about last year and I still remember it...

[BuckFoston]

Who was the 1978 WS MVP?

[Dry1313]

Dude, I guess I asked the wrong World Series...or you did get it wrong...

the season where Dent hit his HR...yeah, AVG leader was Brian Doyle...but Dent won the MVP that year.

[BuckFoston]

Well, since we're having some confusion I looked it up on baseball-reference and it says Reggie has the highest average in the WS. 1977 World Series - NYY vs. LAD - Baseball-Reference.com
