ding ding ding...we have a winner! You are correct. In 1996, newly elected HOF member Barry Larking became the first shortstop to hit 30 HRs and steal 30 bases.

LMK your top 5 teams and I'll see what I can come up with out of my give away prize stash. There are some teams I no longer have GU cards for in my stash.

Thanks and congrats!
