i just did since ppl are on. i judge the difficulty partly on how hard it is to look up. some you can simply google, some are harder to look up.

Wow, that is the hardest trivia question you've done. No one could guess that, it would just be something someone would've heard somewhere to get that answer.
When's the next question coming?

That was the name, Zip Zabel. DAmmit, I was even thinking of Airplane! when I was trying to get the answer, Lt. George Zip.
Guess I should have googled it and got the point.
Your future's all used up.

Zip Zabel
It was a 19-inning game against the Cubs and the Dodgers on June 17, 1915. Coming in relief in the first inning, Zabel went the rest of the way. His Cubs won the game 4-3. The Dodgers started Jeff Pfeffer on the mound, and he went the entire distance to take the loss. It would all be for not, as both teams went on to watch the Phillies win the National League pennant.

how about Jim Konstanty?

For the relief pitcher I am going to guess Elroy Face.

he was a reliever, and it happened a very long time ago

was he a relief pitcher??? Or a starter that was pulled into the game because of a rocky start by the original starter???
Starting pitchers are always used in relief when the game counts

THIS IS A VERY PRESTIGIOUS CONTEST AND PRIZE WE ARE ALL VYING FOR!!!!
The quiz-master should not go sullying the waters by awarding points to those who just basically did him a favor.
Btw, what is the prize we are vying for?

You are making a case, kenne, and i am sorry.
IDK if i should issue a one question suspension or try to sweep this thing under the carpet like a good commissioner.
I was unsure of my source, and i couldn't find a second one to verify it.

So you got a point just for googling something. I don't like that. It seems just a pat-on-the-head should have sufficed.

It's Xeliou66, and yeah he gave me points cause I got the correct source and confirmed what he thought, he said one point for anyone who can get the correct source.

Did you just give Xellou66 points? If you did, why would you do that when he just said he looked up the answer?

Xeliou66 - 8* points (1 seed)
TheGoodman - 5* points (2 seed,)
Millar70 - 3* points (Wild Card 1)
Kenneglds - 3 points (Wild Card 2)
NjtoTX - 2* points (In the hunt)
Scott959 - 2 points (In the hunt)
Toy_Cannon - 1* point (in the hunt)
Beardy_McJewsenheimer_CPA - 1 point (in the hunt)

you are correct! that is what i had..1908 for the white sox

Okay, I looked it up and I found that Yankee Stadium's electronic scoreboard was installed in 1959, but that in 1908 a Chicago inventor developed an electronic scoreboard and it was tested by the Boston Red Sox and Boston Braves.

my source on the first question may be wrong. if anyone can cite a source that is correct, they get a point. and i won't use that site for questions anymore

1889

Your future's all used up.

are you sure about the scoreboard? i have a different year. before that

First Electric scoreboard was in Yankee Stadium, I believe Don't know the year. Guess 1956.
I read one time about the 18 1/2 innings in relief. Can't come up with the name. He had a goofy name.
Your future's all used up.

I'm just guessing for the first one, but I'll guess 1930?
No idea for the second one
