On September 16, 1924 Jim Bottomley batted in 12 runs on 6 hits: 3 singles, a double and 2 home runs in a game against the then Brooklyn Robins.

Ran across this factoid in the 1970 Baseball Register I recently found at the bins. Printed by The Sporting News no less. Brought to mind the Nick Kurtz game from last week. I mean, 4 home runs?? How many RBIs that was…….
