He crossed my mind but never thought he finished with a BA that high.

5 men hit 50 or more career HRs after turning 40 yrs old. Name them.

Career being key number. I initially thought it was in a single season.

I’ll go Bonds, Mays, Aaron, Thome and Ruth
I never had friends later on like the ones I had when I was twelve. Jesus, does anyone?

Bonds is the only one I'm sure of.

I think you will get 3 pretty easily. The other two are tougher.

Winfield!  

 

More confident in him than Baines, who I doubt hit many after 40.

Spoiler: Link to the Sporcle quiz I pulled it from. Dont give any answers away here.

I also just realized this is from their 40yr old  "season" on so its possible more have hit 50+ but a number of HRs were hit during their 39 yr old "season" after they turned 40.

My guesses which are probably wrong:

Bonds
Aaron
Thome
Mays
ARod

Bonds is the only correct one. I got another one on my own but looked up the rest.

 

Highlight below for the others.

 

Winfield, Evans, Ibanez and Fisk are the others.

See if you can get it on the first try. I didn't.

5 players have hit 400+ career HRs without ever having a 40 HR season. Go.

1. Randy

2. ???

3. Johan

4. Pedro

5. CC
