My favorite is "Hard Hittin' Mark Whiten"Funny to see the list of hitters who got four in a game. All mashers, Schmidt, Mays, Gehrig, Klein. Even non-HOFers like Joe Adcock, Rocky Colavito, Bob Horner. And Scooter Gennett? Which one thing is not like the others...
The one and only year I did Fantasy Baseball, Whitten's four homers cost me the league title. If he hit three, I would have won.My favorite is "Hard Hittin' Mark Whiten"
He grew up near SF and was a huge Giants fan. Been a lot of baseballs in San Francisco Bay if he had. But he wasn't going to leave the Bandbox in the Bronx3 home runs for Judge in the first 4 innings lol
Remember when people seriously speculated that he would leave that stadium to hit in San Francisco?
Eh not really, only lefties have ever hit balls into the water there. The only righty to basically manage it was when Buster Posey hit an opposite field bomb that would have easily splashed but it hit a part of the back structure on the walkway there that rises like 15 feetHe grew up near SF and was a huge Giants fan.
