GREATEST NUMBER OF RUNS DRIVEN IN

"Gavvy” dravath of the champion Phillies holds the 1915 record for the greatest number of runs driven in in one game. He hit home eight in the contest with Cincinnati on August 8, twice sending three men over the plate by doubling. The last major leaguer to turn this trick was Harry Davis, who did it in 1890 against Brooklyn. Harry then was with the Giants. Fournier of the White Sox set the American league record for the year when, on July 6, he batted in six tallies.
