In a sports sense, what defines a "one-season wonder?"
Is it, statistically speaking, one great season followed by several mediocre ones? Or simply one solitary out-of-this-world game? Is it a fantastic rookie season followed by a never-ending sophomore slump? It could be all of those.

It could be, literally, the one season an athlete had playing for a team-which was bookended by either a trade of a free agency pickup/release. Or, perhaps, it could be the one astronomical season in a well-defined, well-landmarked career.
For our purposes, it's all of the above.
