After the over-in-five-seconds debacle of the last contest, let's see if I can actually come up with a tougher trivia question.
First, the prizes: Five of the San Francisco Giants: 2010 World Series Collector's Edition DVD sets from A&E Home Entertainment, which you can buy here. They'd make a swell Father's Day gift, hint hint. These are the eight-disc ones, perfect for when you want to close the shutters, put on some Depends, bring a pot of coffee and a bottle of bourbon to the coffee table, and not move for 24 hours. Or, as I like to call it, "Sunday."
Be one of the first five to respond correctly, and you get one. This question should be a little tougher. Here goes ...
What is the common association with the following players (edit: it's obviously a Giants-related answer):
Jimmy Rollins
Todd Helton
Cory Sullivan
Everth Cabrera
None of them have ever been in your kitchen, sure, but that's not the right answer. Also, they've all hit against Livan Hernandez, and they all appear in an MLB-licensed video game. Those aren't the answers. This is a very specific, Giants-related association. Rules:
- Don't put the answer in the comments.
- Don't send your response to the standard gmail address for McCovey Chronicles. Send the answers to mccoveychronicles@yahoo.com.
First five correct responses win a DVD set. Go, go, go! And if you don't win. Buy one. Or two. Three. Hand them out on the streets to passers by.
The contest is now over! Answers after the jump.
First major league batters faced by Tim Lincecum, Jonathan Sanchez, Matt Cain, and Madison Bumgarner, in that order.
