I hit four homeruns in a wiffle ball game once. Of course, we were playing over-the-line and I got million AB's but I think I can directly sympathize with Alexis nonetheless.

Has anybody ever hit five? I know it hasn't happened at the MLB level but in the minors? I'd look, Bob, but there's a root beer in the fridge and, well, since you probably know...:)

The record is eight! Set by Nig Clarke in a Texas League game in 1902.

A big TY. I'm going to the library this week and see if I can't find a game report.

The 8 homers came in a 51-3 by Corsicana over Texarcana.

Texarcana wasn't very good.

That should be Texarkana.

It is even more amazing that it happened a time when eight homers in a season might have lead your club.
