In 1996 Mark McGwire totaled over 100 runs, 100 RBI, 100 walks and 30+ HR in only 130 games.

1 player in MLB history has done it in fewer games.

This player is not in the HOF

Damn! I figured after the excitement of last night's pitching performance, you'd be all about Dunner trivia.

My trivia is never the obvious

I'll take a guess doubt its him since he probably didn't get enough runs and is an obvious choice but Barry Bonds.

"You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Heretic again."

Everybody is beating me to answering Adam Dunn now, I'm getting slower just like the Dunner!

Lol....I'm going to say no but the way I have the stats on this question there was room for me overlooking someone so I'll have to check.

The only year he had 100 runs he played 156 games....never surpassed 70 walks

Then I thought Helton or Walker from the Rockies.
Then I thought must be a big player that gets hurt...
But he's in the HOF.

Damnit....me changing the 40 HR to 30 HR to trick away the baseball reference checkers got me! Frank did it in 113 games. 38 HR

My original question which I researched was for 100 runs, 100 RBI and 100 walks with 40+ HR....to cheat proof it I made 40 into 30

Great find.

Now.....there is a guy who did it in few games for the whole season than McGwire's 130 but was 40+ HR

I think that happened due to the strike season, so he played most of the games that year.
