3 HR games...

[Webster11]

OK, seriously now, this is, per ESPN, the list of 3 home-run games in MLB this season:

Albert Pujols, St. Louis — April 16 vs. Cincinnati
Alfonso Soriano, Washington — April 21 vs. Atlanta
Vernon Wells, Toronto — May 30 vs. Boston
Damion Easley, Arizona — June 3 at Atlanta
Mark Teixeira, Texas — July 13 at Baltimore
Chipper Jones, Atlanta — Aug. 14 at Washington
Jose Reyes, N.Y. Mets — Aug. 15 at Philadelphia
Nick Markakis, Baltimore — Aug. 22 vs. Minnesota

Thanks for the real info.....I used to think this was a useful site but i guess some people just think its a joke....

Only name you got that you didn't have was Easley. People were answering your question the whole time. No need to get overly uptight about it.

Actually even Easley (4th post) was mentioned .

I think Mark Whitten did it once.

Oh, also recall Jose Reyes.

No, no. Whittin hit 4 home runs once. That's not three. That's four. Nice try, though.

...and good call on Reyes. I'd forgot about that one.

I was at a game like 15 years ago when Darnell Coles hit 3 HRs for the M's in the Kingdome. It was saw-weet!

No, no. Whittin hit 4 home runs once. That's not three. That's four. Nice try, though.

So could you say that he hit 3 home runs in that game?

I thought so.

No, Tex hit 3 home runs in a game (that was this year, incidentally). Whitten hit four. If he hit three, then he couldn't have hit four.

No, Tex hit 3 home runs in a game (that was this year, incidentally). Whitten hit four. If he hit three, then he couldn't have hit four.

So Whitten skipped his third home run in that game and went straight to four?

Yes. He's a Cardinal. We do stuff like that here in the Gateway to the West.

The Mets' Jose Reyes did it this year. He hit for the cycle, too. But not in the same game -- that'd be a record.
