The Thursday Thinker: Brewers From Unusual Places

If the Brewers sign Norichika Aoki, he'll be the sixth player in franchise history born in Japan. That seems like as good a reason as any to dust off and update this quiz: How many of the 20 Brewers born in unlikely places can you name in seven minutes?

The rules remain the same: Post your score in the comments but do not comment on any specific answer until after 6 pm Central time, so everyone gets a chance to try it out without having it spoiled for them. And, of course, there's no reason to cheat here, because there aren't any prizes.

I'll be pretty surprised if anyone manages to get all of these. If you do, though, post your time along with your score in the comments.

Have fun, and don't forget to post your score in the comments!

If you've finished that one and you're looking for more Brewer Sporcle today, here are this offseason's other quizzes:

Can’t believe I pulled Jamaica. It’s amazing what is buried in one’s memory.

A missing player

For whatever reason, one-time Brewer Jeff Bronkey was born 9/18/65 in Kabul, Afghanistan.

C. Magruder scored, R. Weeks to second on balk
