WHAT? Neither of these guys were obscure.
Butler had 2,375 hits and stole more than 500 bases.

Tettleton had 250 homers, played several different positions and was in the top 5 in walks six of the seasons he played, that's the top 5 in the league in walks! He had one of the greatest eyes in the game.

They BOTH were all-stars too.

Both had decent careers, no question. It's borderline for me.

I'm probably reaching a touch too far with "obscure" in that case.

My bad.

Dave Clark.

Is that better?

Also the biggest regret I have is not giving the ball to this little kid who came up to look at it. It just sits in a box somewhere in my house. Big whoop.

To be fair, it would just be sitting in a box in his house too.

That being said, giving a ball to a kid is awesome.

I think some people don't understand what an "obscure" player is.

[/ QUOTE ]

the thread title says random, although the post does say obscure. Do you think any of these guys are obscure? I've heard of nearly all of them.
