Hey, guys, you won’t believe what I’ve been digging into lately! I was messing around with some baseball stats, trying to figure out who had the most RBIs in a single season. You know, just a little project I decided to take on, and let me tell you, it turned into a whole thing.
So, I started by just casually looking up some info online, nothing too serious. I mean, I’m no expert, but I’ve always been a bit of a baseball fan, you know? I typed in “most RBI season” into the search bar and started browsing through whatever came up.
- First off, I found this site that listed the top 50 players for RBIs in a season. It was pretty cool, but a bit overwhelming with all those names and numbers.
- Then I stumbled upon another page that had this trivia game. I tried it out, but let’s just say my baseball knowledge isn’t as good as I thought it was.
- There was also this one article that talked about the history of the MLB World Series and who had the most RBIs there. Interesting stuff, but not exactly what I was looking for.
Anyway, after a bit of searching, I finally found the answer. It turns out that this guy named Hack Wilson holds the record with a whopping 191 RBIs in 1930. Can you believe that? 191! I mean, that’s just insane. I read that before him, some dude named Lou Gehrig had the record from 1927 to 1929. I also learned that this other guy, Hank Aaron, has the most career RBIs, and he even led the National League four times.
I spent a good chunk of the afternoon just going down this rabbit hole. I started comparing different players and different seasons. It was kinda cool to see how these numbers changed over the years. I even checked out some more recent stats and found that Aaron Judge had the most RBIs in a season since 2010. At first, I thought it was gonna be really easy, but then I just kept founding more and more information, and I got totally sucked in. I scanned through all those pages and picked out the parts that I needed.
Wrapping It Up
I ended up putting together this little table for myself, just to keep track of all the info I gathered. It wasn’t anything fancy, but it helped me make sense of it all. And you know what? I actually learned a lot. It’s crazy how much history there is behind these sports stats. Oh boy, I spent hours on this thing! I started off just wanting to know one little thing, and I ended up learning a ton. I’m no baseball pro, but even I can tell you that’s a lot. It was fun, though. Maybe I’ll do another one of these deep dives soon. It was just a little side project, but it turned out to be way more interesting than I expected.
