Anyone tried the Immaculate Grid game?

[Sports Guy]

They had a football one yesterday that I had a 23 score on. That’s easily my best..haven’t been under 100 on any other one yet.

Mark me surprised today Robin Ventura never hit .300 for the White Sox.

Apart from being Nolan Ryan's punching bag, he sits in my memory as a Markakis type Bat with a famous college hitting streak.

I'm surprised that so many people seemed to have forgotten about Lance Johnson.

KC 200+ was tough. I got it but my choice was the 90% option. Happy with 8/9 today

I knew a correct answer, but took a shot at someone I was pretty sure of but thought would yield a better rarity score.   That guess turned out to be wrong, as the player had topped out at 193 K’s.  So I went back to the guy I was sure about and got an absurdly high rarity score for that.   Then I thought of a third answer that would have been correct, and would have gotten a really good score.  Bummer all the way around.

I did this one Frobby style, all by memory. Got 8 out of 9 with a rarity score of: 265

Damn Nationals hurt me on the players because they don't go back far enough into my core knowledge years. Now if this were the Expos I'd be gold!

6/9 today.  The 200+ strikeouts for each team killed me.  

I missed my first White Sox 200K pitcher by 9 Ks. Jack McDowell (191)! I don't think I would have gotten the Nats - Pirates one though either way!

You know you can use the Expos for a Nationals’ box, right?   Or the St. Louis Browns for an Orioles box, or a 1960s Washington Senators for a Texas Rangers box, etc.

What, damn, I would have been better. Al Oliver would have been my Pirates/Expos connection.

Kevin Brown and Ben McDonald joking about non-use of Ben for the BAL-MIL square the other day.     

KB touting his Pedro Severino for 4 fewer rarity points.

I use Rick Dempsey for BAL-MIL.   Or even better, for MIN-MIL.

8/9 today, 175 rarity score.  The Reds/Cubs square got me.

Quote

Darryl Strawberry, Eric Davis, Rick Sutcliffe

Wade Boggs, Nick Esasky, Fred Lynn

Aroldis Chapman, miss, Jerome Walton

Could have used Chapman for the Reds/Cubs grid, too.

4.7 currently on the Orioles row. I went safe on the Rangers HOFer. Should have had less than 100.

[Moose Milligan]

Orioles grid today.  9/9 91 rarity score.

Spoiler

Jose Canseco, Rafael Palmeiro, Fergie Jenkins

Oliver Drake, Bobby Grich, Luis Aparicio

Blake Snell, Tony Gwynn, Willie McCovey

 

Snell 33%,  Gwynn 25% and Canseco 17% threw off the rarity score.  Drake was 1%, Grich and Aparicio were .4%.

Same here, I had a 104, and 68 of it was on the Rangers HOFer!

I had 1.8 for my Orioles row.

I accidentally clicked in the Rays/add box thinking I was in the SD GG box and got one wrong. Should have been a 9 but got an 8.
