51. Who was baseball's first star player to be declared a free agent in 1975?

From Quiz Easy Peasy Baseball

Answer: Catfish Hunter

He fought for free agency, and due to Curt Flood's endeavors in his battle with Major League Baseball over free-agency, Hunter was granted free agency before the 1975 season so he signed with the Yankees. Catfish picked up where he left off in New York by being the runner-up Cy Young Award winner to Jim Palmer of the Orioles. Jim retired as a Yankee in 1979 with a 224-166 career record.

55. Who was the first "Frank" inducted into baseball's Hall of Fame?

From Quiz A Medium Aroma of Baseball

Answer: Frank Chance

Chance played the game from 1898-1914, mostly with Chicago of the National League. He led the league in stolen bases twice, and runs scored once. He was player-manager of the Cubs from 1905-1912, then player-manager of the Yankees in 1913 and 1914. He came back as a manager for one season, then retired in 1923 with the Red Sox.

56. Who was the first player in the 2000s to be ejected from 15 games?

From Quiz You're Outta Here!

Answer: Milton Bradley

The other were already retired. Like a leaking radiator, Bradley had cooling system problems in his career. In his first 10 seasons, Milton played for seven teams while going to anger-management therapy many times. Bradley's most famous flare up was with the Padres in 2007, when after hitting a single, started going at with first base umpire Mike Winters. Winters then ejected Bradley. In the fracas, and after half the Padre bench emptied, Bradley tore his ACL and missed the rest of the season.

57. The Major League World Series began play in 1903. In which season did the Pittsburgh Pirates make their first-ever World Series appearance?

From Quiz A Knead for Baseball

Answer: 1903

The Pirates were there in 1903 under the helm of player-manager Fred Clarke. They met the AL Champion Boston Americans, and lost five games to three in the series. Pittsburgh's next World Series appearance was in 1909 in a win against the Tigers, a win in 1925 against the Senators, and a 1927 loss to 'Murderers Row' via the Yankees.

58. Which manager in the 2009 season won his 2500th career game?

From Quiz Pinches of Baseball

Answer: Tony LaRussa

The others had not won even 2000 games in their careers. Tony was in his 31st season and 14th with the Cardinals in 2009. LaRussa left the season with 2552 wins, number three on the all-time managerial record behind the great Connie Mack and John McGraw.

59. In which year did the American League change from a 154-game season to a 162-game season?

From Quiz Baseball from a Drawer

Answer: 1961

The first 162-game season in 1961, created much controversy as Roger Maris broke Babe Ruth's season home run record of 60. Ruth hit his in 1927 in a 154-game season.

60. Which pitcher tied a National League record by losing 18 consecutive games in 1963?

From Quiz What's That Smell?

Answer: Roger Craig

Craig pitched for the Dodgers for seven seasons before joining the expansion team New York Mets in 1962. As a Dodger, Roger never lost more than 11 in a season. However, that would change with the dismal Mets as Craig went 5-22 in 1962, then lose 18 games straight and finish with a 10-24 record in 1963. It wasn't just Craig, other pitching, or hitters. The entire team just smelled. They would lose 100+ games in five of their first six seasons.
