I have to admit, I'm addicted to Sporcle. Quitting cold turkey is out of the question, so to help everyone out, here's another Brewer-related Sporcle question regarding OBP since 1998. Tougher than it looks. The usual rules apply: post your score, but no posting answers until after 6pm Friday.

It's not dead.

It’s just hibernating over summer.

Also, I got 11.

And am really quite upset that I couldn’t figure out who 2010 was. Kudos on that, though.

I'm curious to see how people do

For the most part, I’ll probably only do post-1998 Brewer Sporcles, so we won’t be talking about unfamiliar names here. Still, there’s no way I would have gotten all of them if I weren’t the author. (If I took the quiz tomorrow I probably wouldn’t get all of them.)

I managed a horrible 7

Spent at least half the time trying to figure out 2010 as well to no avail. Should’ve gotten another but I always forget how to spell his name.

BCB, the preferred above replacement level sarcasm supplier.

I got 14 right, but technically 13 because of a misspelling

13!

And I pulled 1999 straight outta my arse.

FIST PUMP.

same here

missed 99, but nailed 10

"That's not a weird stat. Rickie is a run-scorer," Yost said. "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter," Yost told reporters. "See, you guys have no concept. He's a run-scorer. So there's nothing weird about it. That's what he does."

And I’m happy with that.

missed an obvious one. Thought about the name of Mr. 2005, and went, “naaaah.”

No kidding...

I would never have thought he led the team that season.

Amazingly

In one of these years, we had 4 players with a .400+ OBP, and 4 with 20+ HRs, and we still sucked.

At least, I was amazed.

I had no illusions that I’d get all 15… since I’m no fortune teller.

by sjlee on Feb 26, 2010 3:17 PM CST reply actions  

I got 9.

Good enough for me.

I was drunk. Sue me.
