Ted Williams pitched more games (one) than he played at first base.

Nice quiz. I scored 52/55. I only missed three pitchers from the 1920s, not too bad. Thanks for the quiz!

The fact that Pujols isn’t on here given the first 10 years of his career shows WAR is dumb. Fun quiz though

No, it means that Pujols was capped by his limited defense and baserunning contributions. He was still putting up a consistent 7 WAR nearly every season, which is unbelievably good.

But baseball is more than just hitting.
