    Don't have time for the full-blown five-questionn exam today. So here's a quickie pop quiz:

    1. Who were the first two regulars in Kansas City Royals history to hit .300 in a season, with more walks than strikeouts?

    MUSICAL BONUS: What do Charlie Brown and the protagonist in the Randy Newman song, "Birmingham" have in common?

    I'll guess Amos Otis and Al Cowens

    We have a winner.

    On the Royals question, not so much.

    You know, I've answered only one of your sports questions, but I've nailed the musical bonus several times.

    I cheated for this one - Richie Schneiblum is one of them.

    Well if you cheat you shouldn't post the answer, no?

    But yes, Richie Scheinblum hit .300, with 58 walks and 40 strikeouts, in 1972.

    He was the second guy, if that narrows the field any.
