Not Higher/Lower but RefGuess. Easy could be somebody like Cy Young, Medium could be somebody like Walter Johnson, Hard could be somebody like Tris Speaker. Then there could be a Very Hard round with somebody like Roger Connor.
If someone asked me if Tony Gwynn had more doubles than Pudge I’d say no because he was a high batting average singles kinda guy. But knowing that Gwynn had 543 I was thinking there was no way Pudge could actually have that many.
Dalton had a good pronunciation for France French, but Nap had French-Canadian parents and grew up in the US. I'm reasonably sure he said 'Lazh-away' (like the _cash-_ of _cashmere_ + _away_ )
Dalton's guess at how to pronounce Lajoie was pretty close. It's basically La-Zhway or La-zhu-way, depending on who you trust. Pronunciation via UA-cam: ua-cam.com/video/-O1ZXtvJXes/v-deo.html
Since we got floor ball coming up and the boss is away, how about some hockey higher or lower? I’d be interested to see who the hockey guy in the office is, Joez?
Has anybody ever been altitude? It is way harder on your body. Yes the ball flies further but the park is huge and you are up a mile. Helton was a stud for ten years a career 950 ops and 61 war. 59 doubles one yeah 😮 9:12
Nap is short for Napoleon, he's the son of two French-Canadian immigrants and was nicknamed 'the Frenchman'. So yeah, it's definitely pronounced Laj-wah like Jon Lajoie.
Always great to see a Nap Lajoie appearance! Y'all should do a Dead Ball Era edition of RefGuess sometime!
That would be hard tbh
“Who has more triples, Rusty George O’Malley or Old Howard Hoss Ross”

@@ILoveMisty1985 The hard question or the trivia has to be Ed Delahanty. First guy to win batting titles in both leagues.
Holy shit, Pudge had almost 600 doubles? That’s one of the most insane stats I have ever heard.
Ikr
Dude had almost 3k hits with pop but not HR power. Was averaging like 35-40 a year through his peak
He was a monster at the plate in his prime, and not slow like other catchers. I was surprised he was above Gwynn, but not _that_ surprised.

Exactly
Dalton with the hand grab for the fistbump is insane haha!
Joez had me rolling today haha his expressions were so good
No one knowing Nap Lajoie makes my heart hurt.
Same, think I only heard one correct pronunciation on the first try.
Jolly was so confidently incorrect about the pronunciation too lol

“You think JD has more than Pudge Rodrigues?”
“Lowkey”
J. D. stands for Just dingers not just doubles. My babe is a hitter, not a runner.
my favorite part of this series is the random pairings and how yall get along
“My entire life actually, to be more specific” is just a genius line
“It looks like he brushes his teeth with the other end of the toothbrush” might be my favorite Jack zinger ever
None of you guys remember the baseball blog literally titled “It’s Pronounced Lajaway”?
Holy W to whoever made this quiz lmfao
The quiz is epic lol
I did a doubletake at Canobbio in the tux. he consistently makes me laugh.

I don’t think people realize what kinda total career Dustin would have had if not for the injuries. Dude was a MENACE
“He has a grillion doubles” I’m using grillion moving forward
You guys should definitely include more old time players! The stats then were just bonkers
I dont know why old man Dan is in a tux but I'm loving it
only dalton knows how to pronounce lajoie
Since we got floor ball coming up and the boss is away, how about some hockey higher or lower? I’d be interested to see who the hockey guy in the office is, Joez?
This is a great round! Stumped on quite a few and the answers aren’t like 10 doubles apart from me eachother

The Nap Lajoie disrespect
dominated this quiz
Every time it ends I’m shocked at the results. Seems like they get half of them wrong at the least but it’s always a quarter at the most
this was a tough one
Absolutely devastated by the disrespect to Nap Lajoie, an all-time great player
Put some respect on Nap Lajoie's name! (It's pronounced lazh-uh-way btw)
With a lesser spoken stat like doubles, I'd love to see one with runs allowed. Everyone knows ERA, but how many runs does that actually equate to?
Doubles are hit roughly the same frequency as homers with tris speaker at 792. I kinda use the same scale as homers to judge
You guys don't remember Miggy hit his 600th last year? It was a big deal
Is this a game they made?
No one has seen Foolish Baseball's Big Papi video? He hit like a million when he was 40! Fenway Park man it's doubles paradise
Crazy Gwynn had less than pudge
All i know about doubles is Albert belle had 50 and 50 hr in one season. Dude in his prime was crazy
you really feel bad for Paxton's battered Vols syndrome
"it's Tony Gwynn" says everyone blissfully unaware that Gwynn is the king of singles
Man. Was really hoping for an Edgar Martinez; 514.
lotta wrong things being said confidently in this vid lol apart from just the wrong answers
Tony Two Bags Rendon when he’s healthy
why did no one point out it was tony two-bags vs tony two-bags?
657 Doubles is insane.
Good job Pax & Piper
Played alongside and went 13-2 😎 only got Semien and Miggy wrong
the Nap appearance was a pleasant surprise, but the reactions were a little disappointing
The fella on here is built exactly like new Roblox Kanye west
The nap lajoie (la-jwah) disrespect is so sad
"NAP LA- JOY " great Christian rapper name
Dalton's right, it's La-zhwah. Or at least it is if it's the same as Jon Lajoie, who played Taco on The League.
Nap is short for Napoleon, he's the son of two French-Canadian immigrants and was nicknamed 'the Frenchman'. So yeah, it's definitely pronounced Laj-wah like Jon Lajoie.
@@RandomPlaceHolderName Old-school working-class French Canadians though. Pretty sure it was Lazh-way for Nap
how are you going to skip triples?
Got 9 of them...better bench me.
Bring Shea Station back. Only good Mets podcast
tony 2 bags
People not knowing Nap Lajoie is embarrassing. They didn't call them the Cleveland Naps coz they were sleeping!
Hell yea doubles
She wearing a Walmart vest?
No one knows who Nap Lajoie is haha
no one knows how to stay nap lajoie LITERALLY NO ONE it’s “la-jway”
Insane to me Ichiro only had. 362 doubles
Singles hitter. Hit for good average and was a great base runner.
This video is just nap lajoie slander
It is in fact Nap La-Jwa (but the J is like a soft sh idk how to describe it) and he was a STUUUUUUD
