A Major League Baseball inter-league game in June of 2010 featured a rarity that hadn’t happened in almost 70 years – two players with at least 5,000 career at-bats sporting career batting averages of at least .330. The two were Albert Pujols of the St. Louis Cardinals and Ichiro Suzuki of the Seattle Mariners. The previous time that had occurred was back in 1942, when Joe Medwick and his then Brooklyn Dodgers faced off against Paul Waner and his then Boston Braves.
Only one player in the history of the Professional Golf Association tour has shot rounds of 60 or lower twice in his career. Any guesses? Bobby Jones? Jack Nicklaus? Tiger Woods? No, no and no. The answer – surprisingly – is Zach Johnson, whose only victory in a major entering 2010 was at the 2007 Masters Tournament. Johnson notched his first 60 in the third round of the 2007 Tour Championship. He also shot 60 in the third round of the 2009 Texas Open.
How long ago would you think the first professional football game was played, and where did it happen? Many fans are aware that professional football had its roots in Western Pennsylvania, but fewer know that the first game was played way back in 1895, in Latrobe, Pa., home of Arnold Palmer and Mr. Rogers. It is considered a professional game because the team representing Latrobe paid a quarterback named John Brallier $10 for expenses to suit up against the team representing Jeannette, Pa. Both towns are just outside of Pittsburgh.
