Baseball Quizzes - Great Site
You'll hate me for posting this, quite addictive site:
Can you name the MLB Home Run Leaders of the 1990s? - sporcle
On this particular quiz, I got 15 of 24, should have had 19 though.

I beat you by one. I got 16/24. At least I got the top 12. I'm not very good at this kind of quiz.

I only got 15. I kept incorrectly picking players from the 80s and 00s. It was a fun quiz though.

I finally starting going through the teams as time ran out, still can't believe I forgot Belle, McGriff, Williams, and Thomas. Although Albert Belle is somewhat forgettable ......

Here's a tough one, name all the .400 hitters going back to 1876.
I got 18 of 35, and had only heard of maybe 24 or 25 of these guys ever:
Can you name the MLB players that have batted .400 average in a season? - sporcle

22/35. I did get all the 20th Century guys. There were a few others I should have gotten. The only ones I never heard of was the guy named Yank and the guy named Oyster

Good grief, 12/24 on the 90's homer list. That's pitiful.

127 for me. I have blocked out our pitching from the 90's. It's really kind of incredible. Of course, I was working about 1000 hours a week back then, soooo...But still, Mike Moore did not occur to me as our opening day starter, and he did it 3 years.

I scored 139, forgetting some multi year core guys like Tony Clark and Dmitri Young. Even drew a blank on Mike Maroth and the great Jacque Jones. I somehow also managed to forget that Rudy Pemberton hit 3rd for us in 1995!
That's a really fun site.
