Chicago Cubs Team Trivia Quiz
I thought I'd try something new today. Rather than put up another post about an obscure and esoteric record for all of baseball, I figured it might be interesting to create a quiz about a major league franchise's more obscure records. I tried not to make it too difficult, but some of the questions should still test the knowledge of even die-hard fans of the subject franchise.
I figure the Chicago Cubs are a good team to kick off the quiz idea. One of the original franchises of the National League in 1876, they have a passionate following throughout the world. No strangers to tragedy, controversy, and even the occasional championship back in the day, there is plenty to draw from in the well of Cubs minutiae. Answers to the quiz can be found below the questions.
Chicago Cubs Team Trivia QuizName the only lefthanded Hall of Fame pitcher to have worn a Cubs uniform at any point in his career.
Who holds the record for highest batting average by a Cub in franchise history (minimum 3000 PA with the team)?
What ironically named third baseman holds the franchise record for most walks drawn in his Cubs career?
Name the only two pitchers to make over 400 relief appearances in a Cubs uniform.
This is a relatively common trivia question, but who was the third baseman for much of the "Tinker to Evers to Chance" era?
Who is the only pitcher with over 200 career wins as a member of the Cubs?
Seven Cubs have hit more than 200 home runs for the team. Sammy Sosa (545) and Ernie Banks (512) are two of them. Can you name the other five?
I've already mentioned "Tinker to Evers to Chance" in the fifth question. What uniform number did each of those players wear?
Who is the Cubs all-time leader in games played as a shortstop?
Who holds the Cubs record for most pitching appearances in a single season by a lefthander?
