Chip Beall

In this post, Matt Weiner claimed that Chip Beall had copied virtually word for word the following question on Babe Ruth from a Cardinal Classic X packet: "Most RBI titles, with 8; most extra-base hits in a season, with 119; most walks (*) in a season, with 170 and in a career, with 2,056. Highest slugging average for a season, with .847 in 1920, and in a career with .690. All of these records are still held by, FTP, what New York Yankee, whose 61 homers in 1927 was also a record until Roger Maris broke it?"
