The prize on the line here is, of course, a No-Prize and Fifty Million Batter's Box points, redeemable anywhere Batter's Box Points are considered legal tender.

This one is hard unless you cheat. Don't cheat. A wrong guess is better (and more fun) than a correct lousy stinking cheater's right answer.

Ready? ...

THE QUESTION: Recently, when Rod Barajas (yes, Rod Barajas!) hit his 20th homer of 2005, the Rangers became only the second team in baseball history to have their entire regular infield (including the catcher) hit 20 homers in the same season -- and just two other teams above those two have had the entire infield not including the catcher hit 20 bombs in the same season -- and that includes the 2004 Texas Rangers (when Barajas hit 15).

Without looking it up, name either of the other two teams and at least two of the four or five (the one including the catcher) members of that team's infield.
