Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. I was a one-team Mickey. Winning three season MVPs and a Triple Crown, I was the first switch hitter to win that Triple Crown. Who am I?

Answer: Mickey Mantle

Mantle was an 18-season New York Yankee. His 52 home runs in 1956 helped him win his first AL MVP award along with the Triple Crown. His familiar #7 pinstriped jersey saw him win the MVP in 1957 and 1962 also. The 16-time all-star went to 12 World Series with the Yankees.

Answer: Mickey Lolich

Lolich's 17-9 1968 season was overshadowed by teammate Denny McLain's 31-6 season. Mickey got even by taking the limelight in the World Series. Lolich was the runner-up in the Cy Young to Vida Blue of the Athletics in 1971.

Answer: Mickey Cochrane

Cochrane went to five World Series, and hit two home runs in the 1930 series win against the Cardinals.

4. I was a second baseman and played from 1990-2000. I played mostly with the Phillies, but also the Cubs and Blue Jays. My only all-star season was in 1995. Who am I?

Answer: Mickey Morandini

Morandini never led the league in anything, but he was a consistent player. He helped the Phillies to the 1993 World Series against the Blue Jays, but lost in the effort, four games to two. He had one single in the series.

5. From 1970-1984, I played for the Angels, Yankees, and Rangers. In my first season with the Yankees in 1976, I finished third in the MVP voting. Who was I that you saw in the outfield?

Answer: Mickey Rivers

Rivers' 1975 Yankee trade brought Bobby Bonds to the Angels. Mickey went to three World Series, all with the Yankees, and won two. He went to the Rangers in 1979. He retired as a Ranger in 1984, after serving duty as a designated hitter.

6. I played my entire 15-season career in the Detroit outfield from 1964-1978. I won four Gold Gloves, and was there to take my World Series ring in 1968. Who am I?

Answer: Mickey Stanley

Stanley spent 11 of his seasons beside the great Al Kaline in the Tiger outfield. He won four Gold Gloves at his position.

7. Of the four Mickeys listed, who was inducted into baseball's Hall of Fame first?

Welch was inducted next into the hall in 1973. He played in the National League for the Troy Trojans and New York Giants from 1880-1892. Mantle was next in 1974 after an illustrious career with the Yankees. Harrington played in only one game in 1963 as a Phillie, and never had an at-bat.

8. I played many positions during my career with the Dodgers and Twins over 12 seasons. All outfield postions, third base, first base, DH, and even pitched in one game in 1989. Who am I?

Answer: Mickey Hatcher

Hatcher was a versatile player used at many positions. This is what made him a valuable asset to the Dodgers and Twins. He retired in 1990.
