Cubs Trivia:

Two second baseman have hit 25 or more home runs in four consecutive seasons, and both have played for the Cubs during their Major League careers. Can you name them?

[Stinky Pete]

Sandberg and Hornsby?

[Fishin Phil]

You are half right.

[OCCubFan]

I gave up and did some research, resulting in forehead slap. However, I think the calendar is wrong. At lease one player who never played for the Cubs achieved the feat.

[Fishin Phil]

After someone gets it right, let me know who you are thinking of. I have someone in mind as well.

Hmm, would Soriano qualify?

[Spriggs]

I guess it would be Sandberg and Soriano?

I think you're right. So I looked up Kent and Uggla.... Yep. Sure looks like Uggla did it. Good call.

Ha, I looked up Cano, and he did it too.

Sandberg & Soriano is what the Calendar reports. Uggla was who I was thinking of.

The calendar has once again proved fallable. Where do I get my refund??

Second baseman has become such a power position. I think with Barney's recent muscling up, he should be joining this list in no time!

unless he starts taking every steroid known to man kind i dont see him jumping from 7 home runs to 25 at any point in time. my expectations would be somewhere around 12-15 max and i dont think he would sustain that for more than a year or two.

Somebody left their sense of humor in the closet today.
