It was another great week for trivia - not only was the question a tough one, but it also became highly topical, as "The Natural,"
Josh Hamilton, blasted
four home runs against the Orioles last Tuesday. He now has 18 on the season and is batting over .400. Could we be seeing the first triple crown winner in my lifetime? With
Matt Kemp doing work in the N.L., the odds are looking better than normal, but there's still a lot of baseball left to play.

As for this week's question,
Jimmie Foxx was the player who never hit four homers in a game. As a guy that's easily associated with hitting large numbers of home runs, I figured he'd be a tough one to guess. To try your knowledge further, play this
Sporcle quiz and see how many of the 16 4-homer players you can name!
Lately I've been mulling a side project, and in so doing, I've been thinking about a certain sci-fi series lately. The codename for this project is "Operation Dilithium," so I'll let you put 2 and 2 together. Anyways, I came to find out something new about the series recently, and it involves the following:
What was the original name of the central starship in Gene Roddenberry's first pitch to NBC for
Star Trek?
- Enterprise
- Plymouth
- Yorktown
- Independence
- Endeavor
Live long and prosper this week. Also, enjoy a bonus sci-fi related
Sporcle quiz.
