200-20-20 with a Twist
Posted by Raphy on September 10, 2009
With the season winding down, a couple of players are in position to join the 200-20-20 (H-HR-SB) club, each with an interesting twist. Hanley Ramierz is 19 hits short of becoming the second player in baseball history to post multiple 200-20-20 seasons. To date, the only player to have accomplished this was Vada Pinson who posted three 200-20-20 seasons. Meanwhile, Derek Jeter needs 14 hits and 3 home runs to become the second oldest member of the club. Paul Molitor is currently the only player to put up a 200-20-20 season past the age of 32.
Here are all the 200-20-20 seasons sorted by age:
