Title: Sunday Morning Trivia
Post by: Wild Dog on July 05, 2009, 09:51:04 am: 'mornin all. I promise to put the tally count down for the whole season later today. No, really.

Seven times an Astro player has driven in a run in at least 8 consecutive games. Lance Berkman has done it 3 of those 7. Who are the other 4 players? As always, one guess per post.

Ding! He's the last one. 9/5/80 to 9/16/80

He was called out for leaving 3rd too early in the final game of the Phillie/Astros playoff series in 1980. Umpire totally blew that call. Gave it Mike Schmidt....just gave it to him.

Interesting. I didn't remember it that way (but there are now a lot of things that I don't remember correctly!). I remember getting screwed on the comebacker to Niekro, but I've been laboring under the belief that the Woods episode was simply a baserunning error.

iirc, it was not the final game. i think it was the 4th game.
