Ok,in the early days of baseball,batting helmets did not exist.
Men were men & wore the soft cap up to the plate.

NAME THE LAST CHICAGO CUB TO BAT WHO DID NOT WEAR A HELMET:

Good Luck finding the answer!

When & IF I see the correct answer,I will respond.

Different trivia question (if you listened to M&M this a.m., exclude yourself) - and don't look it up, schmucks, there is no prize:

There are 3 active pitchers in MLB that are under the age of 30 that have 100+ wins. Who are they?

Wasn't it someone like Bill Buckner or something like that..probably way off base.

I actually knew 2 since they have Chicago ties.
Zambrano and Jon Garland, and I guess CC is the other.

Not sure on the helmet question. Anyone playing in 1971 or before were
grandfathered in. Ron Santo was the first player in MLB to wear a helmet
with an ear flap on it interestingly enough.

Good Guess, the player in question started his career in the 1960's.
