Okay, here's a hard one:

What was so special about the last game in which Umpire Babe Pinelli umpired behind home plate?

Just for kicks, here's another one, this one crosses sports borders:

Tell me which BASEBALL teams the following Football players were drafted by (Hint: Some of them might have more then one answer, due to the fact they could have been drafted out of High school or college):

John Elway

Tom Brady

Bo Jackson (THREE ANSWERS)

Deion Sanders

Hmmm...not too shabby of questions...

Pinelli's last game behind the plate was Don Larsen's perfect game in the 56 World Series.

As for the football players being drafted by baseball teams....I'll take a stab at the one I know...

Elway--NY Yankees (actually thought about reporting to their NY-Penn League team in Oneonta, NY instead of playing for the Colts...kinda helped the trade to Denver along a bit in the process)

FANTASY TEAMS

Housatonic U. Dragons (NCFA Basketball): 16-6 (8-4 Conf.)--National Runner-Up

Jersey State U. (NCFA Football): Inaugural Year - 2006

Motor City Silverhawks (WArFL): 9-4 (3rd--National Conf.)

Lehigh Valley Ironmen (WAmFL): Inaugural Season--2006

New England Marauders RFC (RLI): 6-0-7 (6th place)

Detroit Spirit (AA): 3-6 (T-4th--Patriot League)

Brooklyn Atlantics (IBF): 10-5 (1st--Appalachian Conf.)

Boston Mariners RFU (WRU): Coming Soon!

New York Americans (SHL): Inaugural Season - 2006-07

You are correct on Pinelli. (I wonder what he said after the game, maybe something like: "I've seen everything now, I can leave happy")

You are half-right on Elway. While he was drafted in 1981 by the Yankees. He was also drafted EARLIER out of high school by the KC Royals, but decided to go on to college.

You are all correct. Your only misisng the fact that Bo Jackson was also drafted by the Yankees out of High School, and was drafted in 85 by the Angels (but he remained eligible the next year).
