With the season finish line in sight, HHS readers have uncovered some odd seasonal achievements that would become even more unusual were they to continue for the full season. Or maybe it’s just an unusual player or team accomplishment in a recent game. If you’ve uncovered something interesting that’s happened recently, this is your opportunity to contribute.
More after the jump.
I’ll start the ball rolling by noting a few oddities that readers have contributed in other posts.
- David P is reporting that Indian catcher Roberto Perez could become the first non-pitcher in over 100 years with a 75 PA season having twice as many walks as hits
- David P also identified that White Sox pitcher Jose Quintana is already the only pitcher with three consecutive 200 IP seasons winning fewer than 10 games. He might do it again this year, but only if he doesn’t record another W.
- Voomo Zanzibar identified that Red Sox catcher Sandy Leon is flirting with the highest seasonal batting average for a catcher in limited PAs (100 minimum)
- Daniel Longmire identified that Oriole catcher Caleb Joseph has yet to record an RBI this year in more than 100 PA
So, what weird and wonderful happenings have you noticed?
