The Baltimore No's - Weekly Trivia!

There was only one reader intrepid enough to hazard a guess for this week's question, but it was a correct one: the Baltimore Orioles are the team that has gone the longest without pitching a no-no. If you don't believe me, just ask Sporcle.

Worst of all, Jamie Moyer will not be attempting to end that streak for the O's. He was 1-1 with a 1.69 ERA for AAA Norfolk in 3 starts, but he never got the call up, so he used his considerable star power to kindly request a release in the hopes that he would play in the bigs for another team. The power play totally worked as another AL Beast team signed him, the Toronto Blue Jays. Nobody puts Jamie in the corner!

There goes the best player in Norfolk Tides history.
For this week's trivia question, we're turning back to soccer. Spain will meet Italy in the Euro 2012 championship (go Roja) as the Azzurri knocked out Germany in a real stunner. Not exactly the tournament I predicted, but it's been awesome stuff.

Thinking about national soccer teams, my question is the following:

Which of the following players is the all-time leader in national team goals for Spain?

  • Fernando Torres
  • Lionel Messi
  • Raul (Gonzalez)
  • David Villa
  • Fernando Morientes
