Congrats to Jeff.   Long time coming for one who was heart and soul of the Astros.

Bidge and Baggy become just the fourth tandem in Cooperstown to play for at  least 15 years together on the same club. If you want to take a guess at the others they played for Pirates, Giant (NY) and Yanks.

I'm guessing Whitey Ford and Mickey Mantle are the Yankee combo.

I would have said Mays and McCovey but I think McCovey was just a SF giant and not an NY giant.

That was not the tandem but one of the above is part of the answer.

It's got to be Clemente and Mazeroski.

I saw the answers earlier so I won't spoil it, but I love this piece of trivia, and Bagwell and Biggio's place in it.

The Giants were Mel Ott and Carl Hubbell.
