Four more

TreAnt985 · 01-04-2004, 12:39 PM

Who holds the record for most games with four or more hits in a single season (not counting walks as hits in 1887, of course

)? How many of these 4+ hit games did he have?

TreAnt985 · 01-05-2004, 04:32 PM

He's also one of the few players to have 4 games with 5 or more hits in each one...

Kirby Puckett?

nomaaaah??

TreAnt985 · 01-06-2004, 11:05 PM

Puckett and Nomar would be good candidates, but they don't share the record for most 5-hit games in one season...this guy played in an era a while back.

Was it Cobb?

TreAnt985 · 01-06-2004, 11:19 PM

Cobb was one of the few players to have 4 5-hit games in one season, but this is one record he didn't hold sometime during his career

TreAnt985 · 01-07-2004, 08:14 PM

This guy is pre-1900.

TreAnt985 · 01-08-2004, 05:31 PM

He was also a .320+ career hitter...

UtterChaos · 01-08-2004, 05:43 PM

I'll guess Hugh Duffy with about 11 four hit games in 1894

gyb13 · 01-08-2004, 05:45 PM

i could be wrong, but do we need a 'tip' on this one?

gyb13 · 01-08-2004, 05:46 PM

does duffy count as pre-1900, since his career ended well into the 20th century?

Would it depend on the season when he had the four hit games?

I've got a wee bit of a feeling I know the guy, but not knowing how many games it was gives me the willies.

TreAnt985 · 01-08-2004, 08:06 PM

Duffy comes a close second with 13 games in 1894. I can only think of one tip that would help answer this one, but I'll hold off for just a little longer...
Also, it's not Keeler. Although he would be one I'd expect to possibly hold this record, he didn't have 4 5-hit games in a single season during his career (to tie the record).
