How are those listed
October 28th, 2010 at 9:37 am
@1, Dave -- Looks like reverse alphabetical order by last name.
October 28th, 2010 at 11:18 am
that is correct
October 28th, 2010 at 11:32 am
Sanchez is the only one with 3 or more RBIs.
October 28th, 2010 at 11:58 am
Curiously, second basemen have accomplished this the most...

Brett - I noticed that too. Not sure if that's because, most of the time, 2Bs don't have a lot of HR power - but, are usually better hitters than SS or C with no HR power. You know, you have a guy who can hit, has no HR power, and his not go enough to play SS or CF, so, you stick him at 2B.

meant "not good enough to play SS or CF"

[...] Sanchez didn’t have a bad game himself. He only doubled in his first three WS at-bats and finished with four hits and three RBI. Not bad for a former Bucco! (sorry, I had to add the Pirates plug in there). Three extra-base hits with no home runs in a WS game? It’s only happened a handful of times before. [...]
