On Wednesday, July 8, 2026, Dylan Cease became the sixth Toronto Blue Jays' pitcher to lose a no-hit bid after eight or more innings pitched.

Name as many of them as you can, (other than Dave Stieb, who did this four times).
Bowden Francis 2X , if I recall

In the Blue Jays Era , (post 1976), two Major League Baseball players had seasons in which they had 100 or more RBIs and fewer than 10 Home Runs.

Name either or both.

Hint: They played against each other in a World Series.
Paul Molitor did it for sure. So it would have been against someone he played against on the 1982 Cardinals or 1993 Phillies. I'm going to guess Willie McGee as the other.

Paul Molitor is Correct. Willie McGee is not. McGee had 11 homers in his only 100 RBI season, (1987).

Nope.

Jose Altuve signed with the Astros organization in 2007. There is one player, (four days younger than Altuve), who signed with his team earlier.

Watkins Glen

For everyone else: The Formula 1 Ferraris were painted blue and white for the last two races of the 1964 F1 season (United States and Mexican Grands Prix), the colours of NART, (North American Racing Team). Enzo Ferrari was in a dispute with the F1 governing body at the time.

NART was a racing team which entered Ferrari cars in major sports car races from the late 1950's until 1982.
