@SteveDugan1950 @KennJDodgerBlue @TableTopMania @APBAreplay @Baseball_More @BloggerTubbs @apbamlb1987 @oriolesrise @TheFrizz87 Here is the only game I could find. Sexson & Burnitz did it as teammates here. They batted 4-5 so 2 of the instances were back-to-back. baseball-reference.com/boxes/ARI/ARI2…

@KennJDodgerBlue @TableTopMania @APBAreplay @Baseball_More @BloggerTubbs @apbamlb1987 @oriolesrise @AlexanderRaine7 @TheFrizz87 The most amazing thing to me about that game was having one player on each team hit 3 home runs. I never had that happen before. I wonder if it has ever happened in real life.

@joecat6 @Chisportsnut He’ll have to go 0-9 down the stretch to match that for me. Don’t think he has 9 starts left.
