    In the current PI era, only Carlton Fisk had more 4 RBI games without a loss than Hunter. Fisk's teams won all 36 games in which he had at least 4 RBI.

  2. Basmati Says:

    Torii has time to get there. I see in game 4 above he had all 6 RBIs. How rare is that?

  3. Gerry Says:

    Basmati, I don't know how rare that is, but the record for most RBI accounting for all his club's runs in a 9-inning game is 8, set by George Kelly for the Giants, 14 June 1924, and tied by Bob Johnson for the Athletics, 12 June 1938. Allowing extra-inning games, the record is 9, set by Mike Greenwell for the Red Sox, 2 Sept 1996, in a 10-inning game.
