No Reds since '77 since a bit surprising, would have figured that someone like Larkin or Votto to have reached it in one of their better seasons.

 

[derekson]

I'm shocked that Crawford never got 200 hits for the Rays. He was a high average hitter who rarely walked and played full time.

 

[E5 Yaz]

I'm shocked at the identity of the player who's on the list for three separate teams

 

[simplicio]

Am I blind? I see two guys that did it for two teams, none that did it for three.

 

[glennhoffmania]

Am I blind? I see two guys that did it for two teams, none that did it for three.

Same. But I figured i was missing something and didn't want E5 to make fun of me.

 

[absintheofmalaise]

Vlad did it twice for the Angels. Once when they were the Anaheim Angels and once as the LAA iteration. Maybe that's what he's talking about.
E5 is going to make fun of you anyway GHoff.
No one for the actual Nats has hit 200 or more. Vlad also did that twice when they were the Expos.

 

[Rovin Romine]

As a followup question, someone did hit 198 hits for the Rays in 2003. Any guesses who that was?

 

[glennhoffmania]

Somehow I guessed correctly. That's surprising.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

Ichiro did this for ten consecutive seasons.

 

[E5 Yaz]

Same. But I figured i was missing something and didn't want E5 to make fun of me.

Am I blind? I see two guys that did it for two teams, none that did it for three.

My fault. I swore I saw the BAL/OAK hitter a third time.

I blame old age

 

[uncannymanny]

Surprised to learn that Trout has never had 200 in a season (190 in 2013).

 

[Sandy Leon Trotsky]

I can’t believe Jeter is No.2 all time single season hits behind Molitor!

 

[DJnVa]

I can’t believe Jeter is No.2 all time single season hits behind Molitor!

He's not. That's just the most recent on the team.

 

[Hank Scorpio]

I expect to do horribly on this: (Yep, 8/29)

Edit: Just checked my results. Awful. I didn't even get Devers correct.

It looks like the White Sox would go all the way to 1954 if not for a suspended game. Their game against the Blue Jays on April 26, 1998 was called due to rain when they were tied 5-5 in the 6th inning. Since Albert Belle played in every single one of their games, he ended up with the rare 163 game season and was sitting at 197 hits until he collected 3 hits in the last game of the season. Otherwise, their answer would be Nellie Fox.
