Hey only happened 3 times ever before to have 3 salamis in the same game through 207,000+ MLB games! Yankees Baltimore(2) + Texas(1) Chicago (2) + Houston (1)
First answer is 100% Alex PED Rodriguez The second guy is Travis something. Played in the mid 2000s ARod Yes, The single season record is 6 set by Don Mattingly (NYY 1987) and Travis Hafner (2006 CLE)
Most all time - Manny Ramirez Most in a season - Todd Helton? I feel like someone had like 8 in a season sometime recently. Like within the past 10 years... Wrong, both records were set while the player was a Yankee. Except for Tatis
Didn't they give up two to Willingham in 2010? It was 2009. Current Reds 3rd base coach Jim Riggleman was the Nats manager in the game. First one allowed by Jeff Poopon
Too bad there is that rule where you have to leave the starting pitcher in until he throws 100 pitches or Fiers who is clearly sucking could have been removed.
This applies more to the future rather than 2015, but we are on pace for the #1 draft pick!!! That's pretty good, hopefully this time around we don't select BJ Surhoff over Barry Bonds
I am getting sick of this trend to just assign a relief pitcher to an inning to matter what. 3 lefties to start the inning so lets bring in Broxton because he is the 8th inning man. It at least used to be mostly the 9th but now more teams have only 1 pitcher who is allowed to start the 8th
