    Dennis Martinez sounds right. The fourth guy? Blyleven?

    EDIT: I just looked. Not sure how I missed on that hump.

    A little easier: who was the career home run leader before Babe Ruth set the new record in 1921?

    No idea, but it's cool the Babe held the all-time HR record for 53 years. That's a long time to hold a "compiler" record. Rose's hits record might last that long too. Obviously no one is going to touch Cobb's lifetime average record or Cy Young's 511 wins.

    astounding there have only been four career home run leaders in modern MLB history: Connor, Ruth, Aaron and Bonds.

    Who is the only MLB player named to at least 11 All-Star teams who was one and done on the Hall of Fame ballot, only receiving two votes in his only year of eligibility?

    It would have to be a decent player on a lousy team who was often the default all-star because there was no one else.

    That said, I have no idea.
