Yep.  Weirdly good year.

Question #121:

Six Hall of Famers in history have strung together six consecutive games of 2+ RBI.  One did it twice.

Name the three who did it in a season where they also led the league in RBI.

(All the years in question are post-1920)

You got one of them already.

Gehrig did it in 1931, when he drove in 185.

None of the rest ever managed the streak part.

I'll give a hint.  The other two did it in the '20s and' 50s respectively.

If it's too tedious a question, I can add more qualifiers.  I'll also add that while he was technically the only one to take the streak to 7 games, Hack Wilson didn't do it the year before his back-to-back RBI leader seasons.

Of these, the only other one to get the streak is Ott, but not the year he led the league.

Campanella is #2.  Accomplished the streak and led the league in '53.

Nope.

The third guy is the one who accomplished the 6-game multiple RBI streak twice (both times in the '20s).  He only led the league in RBI one of those years, though.

Neither of them.

He went by a nickname.
