10 RBIs tonight! just hit a grand slam

Angels record (beat Vlad Guerrero's previous record of 9 in a game)

not sure about major league records but I wouldn't be surprised if this was the most RBIs by one player in a game this season at least

EDIT:

after checking http://www.baseball-almanac.com/recbooks/rb_rbi1.shtml

American League record is 11...set by Yankees Tony Lazerri in 1936

National League record (MLB record) is 12 in a game set by both Jim Bottomley of St. Louis in 1924 and St. Louis' Mark Whiten in 1993!

btw for the non baseball fans, 10 RBIs by one player in one WEEK would be considered a great week

hahaha, ESPN's gamecast only shows him with 1 RBI cuz they can't handle double digits

yeah he would be up 5th next inning if the Angels get a few on...hypothetically if he was up with the bases loaded, an intentional walk would still tie the AL record as you get an RBI if you are walked with the bases loaded

Whitten had 4 homers whenever he had his 12 rbi's

and I believe Nomar had 10 rbi in a game a few years back

8/22/2007 1:08:44 AM

I had the game on and was doing something on the comp, and overheard them say he already had 6 RBIs and had a chance at the Angels record

I thought "yeah but he'd have to hit a grand slam for that"

Next pitch, out of the ballpark

8/22/2007 1:09:19 AM

^^for real? i remember dude from the padres hitting 4 homers, dunno about his rbi count

morneau hit 3 homers in one game this year as the twins waxed the white sox in a double header acouple months ago but he "only" had like 5-6 rbis...i remember torri getting 7 in a game

haha the announcer just said "she's a little bit hard on garrett"

^yeah ive been watching cause i have kelvim escobar in fantasy

base hit for mathis...closer to anderson getting back up!

[Edited on August 22, 2007 at 1:16 AM. Reason : and doesn't even get 1 more. WHAT A LOSER!!1]

8/22/2007 1:15:00 AM

runners at the corners!

8/22/2007 1:15:43 AM

i bet he strikes out

8/22/2007 1:16:06 AM

ground out to be specific

still a great performance

8/22/2007 1:16:52 AM

what a choke artist

8/22/2007 1:24:25 AM

seems like i remember erubiel durazo getting 11 a few years back, or something like that.

A-Rod had ten RBIs a couple of years ago at the Stadium against the Angels. He hit 3 HRs, and I think they all came off of Bartolo Colon. Anyway, that's a great feat by Anderson considering he only had 40 RBIs before last night.
