That is a great question. Not only a pitcher, but an AL pitcher before things were messed up. We no longer even KNOW which pitchers are switch-hitters.

My favorite baseball trivia question is:
Who has the most UNASSISTED double plays as an OUTFIELDER? He is in the Hall of Fame. How many did he have?

A. Tris Speaker, six.
AI makes the answers easy. We now need to ask such questions when someone can't use his phone.

In 1971, switch-hitting AL MVP Blue hit a whopping .118 with 12 hits, 2 doubles and 2 RBIs. He walked four times while striking out 63 times. He is not remembered for his hitting.
