Matt is correct again.

After going thru every AL team's pitching rotation on baseball-reference.

It's always more fun if I can get it right on the first couple guesses off the top of my head.

Willie Norwood got hit on the head with a flyball.

No,wait, that would have been earlier.

And it may have been Bombo.

Kenny Landreaux.

Only hitter I can think of that would be able to accomplish that.

Jackson's nickname would later be changed to "Papa Up" by Patrick Ruesse, back in the days when he was worth reading. Much like the current edition of the club, the few highlights that occued that year, stand out.

Sounds like you knew the answer before I posted the answer. Yes?

If so, you are the new trivia champion.
