Some sample questions from this category:
* What major league player hit the first regular season home run in a baseball game held outside the United States?
* Most baseball fans know that Joe DiMaggio set a record for the longest hitting streak in the major leagues at 56 games. But who set a hit streak record in the minor leagues?
* To say the 1904 Washington Senators were a bad team would be putting it mildly. Their 38-113 record sounds pathetic enough, especially when you consider one American League pitcher had more wins than that by himself. Who was that 40-game winner in the Major Leagues?
* Probably the only player to have two seasons in the Major Leagues and never pick up a glove or a bat, this man was another Charlie Finley experiment. Who was this Major League first designated runner?
* Greg Maddux of the Braves set a National League record for throwing an amazing 72 innings without giving up a walk. Which of the following set an American and Major League record for throwing 84 innings without a walk in 1962?
