White Sox Who Am I?

[Chisox73]

I have a new game that I am starting.It's a little different than the picture games in selected forums.

In this game,I will give you a stat,a historic game note,an individual accomplishment,or something completely off the wall.All you have to do is guess the player.Very simple.

I will start this off with this one;

This White Sox player once drove in 6 runs in 1 inning.Who is it?

[South Side Hitmen]

Shot in the dark-

Carlos Lee?

[Chisox73]

Sorry,it wasn't CLee.This was done in the early 50s

[South Side Hitmen]

Nellie Fox or Minnie Minoso are the 1st two names that come to mind.

[Chisox73]

Sorry,it's not those 2.

Note to self;Always start the game with an easy question.

[Chisox73]

I'll give a hint here;

This person managed the Minnesota Twins in the 60s

[South Side Hitmen]

I didn't know it, so out of curiosity, I baseballreferenced it. So I won't give it away, I'll see if anybody else knows it.

[Chisox73]

If no one gets it soon,then go for it South Side.:gt

[VIBaseball]

The only Twins manager from the '60s I can think of is Sam Mele. I don't remember reading about him as a player, but it seems likely to me.

[Chisox73]

Congratulations VIBaseball.It is Sam Mele.You have set off the scoreboard here.

Sam Mele drove in 6 runs in 1 inning on June 10,1952 against the Philadelphia A's.

Who Am I #2

Ok,here's one from recent times.

I was the 1st White Sox to have an 8 RBI game.I had to get to the ballpark really early to do this.Who Am I?

[Chisox73]

Just a bump here.

Another clue;

I lead the Sox with 14 home runs in 1976.

[Good Men wear Black and White]

well in 1976, two players hit 14 home runs, jorge Orta, and Jim Spencer,
but my guess would be Jim Spencer

[Edgartohof]

Well, in that case, just for a chance to win, I'll take Jorge Orta.

Correct!!!

Jim Spencer is the man I'm looking for.

Great job GMWBAW.
