Sporcle quiz: Can you name every Yankees rookie to have a multi-homer game since 1965?

Here's hoping you can name at least one.

The excitement of both today's game and the Yankees' young players this year made me curious. Over the past 50 years, how many Yankees rookies have had multi-homer games? I checked it out on the amazing Baseball-Reference Play Index and found some very obvious names, but also some who are almost completely anonymous. It has happened 19 times in the past half-century, so I made a Sporcle quiz about it. So how many of the players can you name?

After you take the quiz, share and discuss your results in the comments! I have a feeling that we'll see many similar scores, and if anyone gets a few of these names, I will be stunned. Good luck!
