Who holds the MLB record for most consecutive batters retired?

Haha nice. I will think of one on my way home. Leaving work meow.
I thought you had a daily text thing with your friends for these?
We do but I didn't send mine out today yet. I suck.

Hold please...........
Why haven't you shared any of the recent ones with us?
Been forgetful. Also been busy at work.

Name the two players, who are the only two-time MVP winners not in the Hall of Fame?
Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens?

Do they have to be HoF eligible? Because there's A-Rod too.

New question. I didn't like that one. You beat me before I can change it haha. This one is better.......

Only three players have hit home runs before they turned twenty and after they turned forty. Can you name two of the three?

My first thought was

Griffey
but he hit no home runs when he was 40 years old, his last year in the majors.

That's it. But this question is stupid because A-Rod also fits his criteria.

I was surprised Griffey didn't as well.

One is a hall of famer, one miiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight be and one is off the HOF ballot but has more hits than Ted Williams.

The 2 on this site was Maris and Dale Murphy but obviously it's outdated and not counting current players and players still HoF eligible (Bonds) and such. Hence why I audibled.
