'The Reds' Frank Robinson tied a rookie record with his 38th homerun, and it resulted in a blown save by him. The New York Giants eventually lost 11-5'

That's the man and you're back over 10 grand.
Let's take a moment between rounds to meet our contestants, all champions:
*Prims turns to DW*
Prim: DW ...
DW: Hi Prim. Thanx for putting baseball clues in the game. I like all sports but I know the heck out of baseball.
DI: Objection!
Prim: Objection? This isn't a court of law.
DI: This is my forum and I'll object when I want to. As sports moderator, I will not allow such shoddy language, and in a championship match of all places ... knowing the heck out of something? WTF does that mean?
Prim: WTF? Yes, that is terminology we wound up using instead of Chance and Community Chest cards in NFLopoly.
Jza: Psht, stop plugging your game.
Prim: You have no problem if I plug Jeopardy in the Indy forum.
Jza:
*Prim turns back to DW*
Prim: So DW, you're leading this game.
DW: Got that right, and I'm gonna clean up!
*Jza hands Wicket a mop*
DW:
Jza:
DI: This forum is spic and span, it doesn't need any cleaning.
Prim: Not only are you leading by several thousand, you have won a record eight Sports Jeopardy titles. To what do you attribute your success?
DW: *drops mop and dusts off hands* To uh knowing more than the other guy.
Prim: Uh, okay. Well, how about being able to ring in faster?
DW: No. To knowing more than the other guy. That's it.
Prim: Um, okay. *turns to JZA*
DI: Hey, when do you get to me??
Prim: Patience DI, we're going in order of current score.
DI: Why don't you go in order of who rules this place, in which case, I'd be first. *points to self*
Prim: Uh, no ...
DI: Then how about SJ titles, in which case I'd be next. I've won seven of 'em ... lucky seven.
Jza: I'm next, shut your trap Irish bug!
DI: You has-been, you dare tell me to be quiet?
Jza: Don't make me call Big Ben Wallace on you.
DI: Oh yeah, well I'll Duncan you to death.
Jza: You and who's army??
DI: His. I'm calling in the world champions San Antonio Spurs. *claps hands*
Suddenly, the door swings open, and security actually welcomes the team members of the 2005 NBA Champions San Antonio Spurs, strutting in one at a time.
First, Tim Duncan waltzs in.
He is followed by Peter Parker.
DI: What? Get that stuff off the walls and get out you wannabe-superhero!
Peter Parker scrapes his webbing off the wall where he shot it, turns, and runs off crying.
Then comes Manu Ginobli.
The pair of Spurs walk in supreme confidence towards a suddenly-sweating and gulping Pharoah.
Then, head coach Gregg Popovich rushes in and demands his team halt their forward progress.
Duncan: What is it coach??
Popovich: I will not allow my team to walk with such arrogance. Back to the Alamodome and the mandatory practice I just decided to hold. Move it.
Duncan and Ginobili turn around and walk out.
Jza is relieved.
DI: Wait, I'll pay you. We have drinks! WE HAVE DRINKS .........
Jza:
