I do not know the answer to this though, and wouldn't know where to begin. I'm guessing they're not active players, but I could be wrong there as well. If it's anything pre-95, I'll likely be S.O.L. on the second player anyway.

Correct on both [bolded] accounts.

I think the toughest part is although both are considered versatile and very good players, neither one was ever known for speed as their "carrying tool."

Here's another vague clue. It was the first year that more than one player had a 30-30 season.

Full disclosure, I don't think I ever even heard of Teammate B.

I mean, I probably have heard the name, but I have no knowledge of anything else that he did.

Clue #3, the first 40-40 season would come the following season.

Yeah, one has more name recognition, but if you were around during this time you definitely would've known both players. Both multi-time All Stars.

Interestingly, there's only been 4 total 40-40 seasons, the most recent being Alfonso Soriano in 2006.

Okay so I had to cheat to see what year Canseco got his 40-40 season, because I know he was the first.

I won't know the answer still, but at least I have a reference point now.
