I don't have an answer to that one, except to note that it
has been attempted by only a few major league players such
as Bert Campaneris. Traditionally, the gentleman you mention
is only on first, although someone better educated than me
has pointed out that in some games the position is covered
by Whom. So it is entirely possible he has achieved this
feat. Please let us know what your research turns up.

I am almost finished, but there seems to be a problem: The second
baseman prefers the golf course and Hooters? To the race track? Maybe
that information is not necessary?

This is negated by (4) above and that led to two other errors,
but congratulations for realizing that this April Fool's post
is actually solvable and for having a go at it.
