Wednesday Trivia

[Theoldmole]

It's an often-tied, never-beaten single game record. The last three guys who tied it later played for the Mets. What and who?

[seawolf17]

First thing I thought of was four K's in an inning, but that's an inning record not a game record, and I have no idea who did it last.

Second guess is four homers in a game. Shawn Green, Mike Cameron, and...?

[Gwreck]

Delgado.

Yup.

Here's a followup: who's the last guy to homer four times in a game his team lost?

[seawolf17]

I don't know if it's right, but I always think of Bob Horner when I think of four-HR game guys.

[Centerfield]

Me too.

[HahnSolo]

Correct! The Braves lost 11-8 that day.

[seawolf17]

Really? I thought Horner drove in eleven runs or something. Apparently not.

edit: No, that was Mark Whiten with twelve that I was thinking of.

[Theoldmole]

And if you throw in Hodges, they've had four of that fraternity.

[Frayed Knot]

Mays = 5

[Theoldmole]

So of the ten guys who have done it and who could possibly have played for the Mets, five of them actually have.

[Frayed Knot]

So who's in the 'could have but didn't' category?

(hard hittin') Mark Whitten
Joe Adcock
Bob Horner
Mike Schmidt (extra innings IIRC)
?????
