    How many times did Roger Maris get intentionally walked in 1961?

    I believe it was zero because he hit ahead of Mantle.

    Named the only MLB player to get 500 hits for four separate teams?

    I will guess Rusty Staub: Colts/Astros, Expos, Tigers, Mets. The Mets might be a push, since he did a lot of pinch-hitting.

    Crap in a hat, I didn’t even have time to sit down before you got a hold of that one.

    Actually, someone posted that very fact on my Twitter feed just a few days ago, so I abstained from answering.

    Who was/is the only pitcher in MLB history who pitched a no-hitter in the first and the last complete game of his career?

    Well apparently there are two and the source was wrong. Because he's not the guy I'm thinking of, my guy had more than one no-hitter and way more than one complete game.
