I looked at the HR logs of all Hall of Fame pitchers
Guys who hit
3 HRs in 1 game off of a Hall of Fame pitcher(or pitchers). Headings
are Batter-Pitcher(s)-Year. If you think I missed any cases let me know
Jack Manning Clarkson 1884
Foxx Gomez 1933
Jim Lemon Ford 1956
TWilliams Wynn-Lemon 1957
Bench Carlton 1970
Bench Carlton 1973
Mayberry Jenkins 1975
Jim Presley Morris 1986
I
knew of the Williams case because BB Ref recently posted a list of all
the cases of a guy hitting a HR off of 2 different Hall of Fame pitchers
in one game and Ted hit 1 off Lemon and 2 off Wynn
You might already know this but Manning hit his 3 HRs in Lake Park where the Chicago White Stockings played. It was probably only about 230 feet to RF (all or most of it, not just down the line). Before this year any ball hit over the RF fence was just a 2B. But for this year alone they were HRs. Manning was on the visiting team, Philadelphia.
