Who Am I? Catchers version
You know the drill. I'll say a word or two, you come up with the name.
At times, there can be more than one correct answer.
Some easy, some obscure.......
1. Plane
2. Car
3. Hair
4. Long Hair Switchie
5. New York Switchie
6. Boston Switchie
7. Detroit Switchie
8. Pudge
9. Pudge Too
10. Spy
11. 8
12. 8 Too
13. Gibson
14. Sparky
15. Caught many balls; And almost one bat
16. Jo-Dee! Jo-Dee...
17. Manny Being Manny
18. Sciosia Fav
19. Throat
20. Marichal
I think this is easier than others, so a couple of extra credits....
Extra Credit One: He should be in the Hall. My favorite underrated catcher....
Extra Credit Two: I hit .297 and I hit 297 homers. Three more of each and I'd of been pretty good!"

I guess Simmons could be #4. The extra credit question is MY exact wording for Simmons

6- Varitek
15- Piazza
and 5 could be Posada if Hundley wasn't what you were going for. Though for obvious reasons, Hundley would be my choice.
I'm also going to go with Napoli for 18 hoping you are going for the sarcasm factor.

I would have accepted either Mathis or Napoli for Sciosia.

Re: Who Am I? Catchers version
#10 is left.
Hint on number one extra credit- He had a great career during the 60's and 70's.
Hint on number two- Go back in the 'Way back machine'.
A Hall of Famer with a nickname that would be thought of as not politically correct today probably.
