Trivia

This comes from Keith Olbermann's blog.
Two great questions batted around Yankee Stadium Sunday which you can chew on for a few days.

One of them is fully vetted - the other, not quite.

  1. When Rickey Henderson is inducted, he'll become the fourteenth Hall of Famer who once wore a Mets' uniform. Name the other thirteen, and note the construction of the question. They are indeed, not all players.

  2. How many Hall of Famers retired immediately after playing on a World Series winning team? How many of them did so immediately after playing on a losing team? Looks like four or five winners and about ten losers, but I'm still double-checking.


Update: July 8 - Keith has provided the answer to the first question about Mets Hall of Famers.
