Ozzie hit less homeruns in his career than a good player hits in a whole season, no offense on Ozzie what so ever, homerun hitting wasnt his thing.

3. Yes
He also beat up a guy with no hands and killed a mugger on the way to a game.

Hershiser holds the record for scoreless innings (I believe it's around 55)
