Falconsfan567 Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 I love trivia. We used that have a thread like this a while back. Let's see how long we can keep this going. You guys all know the drive. If you answer right you get to ask the next question.Here is a 2-part trivia question to start off with. What position was Chipper Jones playing when he hit his first MLB homerun and who did he hit it off of. I think we all know the team and stadium he hit it against but what position was he playing defensively and who was the pitcher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLBrave Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Uhh, how about he was playing LF against the Mets and he hit it off one of Bret Saberhagen or Josias Manzanillo. Can't remember which one it was, but probably the reliever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember which one it was, but probably the reliever.Right. He was playing LF at the start of 1995. I guess Ryan Klesko was hurt. In the 9th inning of a 2-2 game Chipper took Manzanillo deep to win the game. It was just the start of Chipper becoming the Mets killer.Ok ATL. Post a question.

ATLBrave Posted February 23, 2012 Share Posted February 23, 2012 Correct to Lemke with 24 games. Played in all but the 1999 series. Blauser was a close second with 23 games played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blauser was a close second with 23 games played.I knew it had to be someone who was with the Braves a long time and my answer came down to Blauser or Lemke and I went with Lemke based on the fact that Bobby liked to play Belliard a lot in the playoffs because of his defense.

Falconsfan567 Posted February 23, 2012 Author Share Posted February 23, 2012 Before Chipper Jones against the Nats, who was the last Braves player to hit 3 home runs in a game?You do know that Chipper isn't the last Braves player to hit 3 homeruns in one game don't you? But if we go by your question I'm gonna say Andruw Jones against the Phillies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
