    Of course Micah Owings did this in one game in 2007.

  2. Jay Says:

    How many pitchers have hit 2+ HR in a year without hitting one in their first six seasons?

  3. Raphy Says:

    32 pitchers have had a 2 HR season some time in their career after not homering in their first 6 seasons.

  4. Zachary Says:

    Am I the only one who wonders why Micah Owings doesn't play in the outfield?

  5. Ben Says:

    @4 No, you are not. Weird fact of the day: Micah Owings has more career WAR from batting (3.0) than pitching (0.4).
