Some say Joe Dimaggio’s record hit streak of 56 games will never be broken. Others says Johnny Vandermeer’s record of 2 consecutive no hit games will never be broken,( I agree ). The stupid 100 pitch count guarantees that! However, Fernando Tatis record is somewhat safe. In order for it to be broken, at a minimum 23 guys would have to bat. The guy would have to at the very least be the 4th, 13th and 22nd batter of the inning. Pretty safe, but with the steroids, juiced ball, short fences and the craze for homeruns, it is not as safe as Vandermeer’s record….

In reply to Jake. They scored 19 runs in the inning which made it possible.

Believe Tony Cloninger hit two grand slams in one game. Was it the same inning…….Only pitcher to accomplish that feat…..
Ted Williams hit three home runs in one game twice in one season…..I think it was 1957……
Who was pitcher who hit home run in first major league at bat then never hit another in his hall of fame career……? (Relief pitcher for Orioles).
Would like little anecdotes…….like:—–Red Sox clinched 1946 A.L Pennant, 1-0. Ted Williams scored only run…….What was the oddity of that……ANSWER——Ted hit inside the park homer. Only one of his career……….Thank you for the great job you do……I’d love to help with stories……..Jim T.

“who not only collected three hits in one inning , but rapped three homers in one inning. It was in the 14-run first inning of Woodside’s 24-6 win over Westmoor High on April 18, 2013” If Woodside is using a nine man lineup, this is impossible.
