Talk:List of Major League Baseball single-game records

message: I'm thinking maybe this is getting a little big for its own good, and should be broken up into more than one table, say, one for hitting, one for pitching, one for baserunning/fielding, etc.?? That way, the notes are more manageable, too. Revolver 17:23, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

message: This article is beyond confusing... it would be improved by putting the footnotes in with the article, no?
One more record that should be added to this page is:
Only time ever that a pitcher's first ML at-bat was a pinch-hit HR: Gene Stechschulte, April 17, 2001.

:I just dropped by this article today and found it confusing that the numbered footnote do not appear 1,2,3 but in some other order. Conversion to cite.php would help that. For the lettered footnotes, it might be clearer if the event details could be incorporated into the table, perhaps in the references column. (The entry for "most hits in an inning" put a 3 in the column otherwise devoted to "# of occurrances" - fixed that.)  Also, the criteria refer to single game events, but then under fielding is a double-header event; not sure how to fix that.  Gimmetrow 02:17, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

message: If Fernando Tatis hit two grand slams in one inning, then he must have accomplished the eight rbis in an inning as well. I'm not familiar with the "table" format here, so someone else needs to correct it. piper108 04:35, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: 8 runs batted in in one inning

message: I am going to rewrite this entire article as a more text-based article, getting rid of the graphs and footnotes. Vidor 00:06, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: What graphs do you mean? The tables seem useful, but the unique events could be written about as text before a table summarizing the non-unique events. Gimmetrow 00:26, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I mean a text-based article, with bullet points. Better way to organize, I think. Vidor 12:40, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  The table seems clearer to me. Handling the unique events in text seems OK, but a list of bullet points for the rest doesn't really seem like an improvement. Gimmetrow 16:18, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, I have to disagree with you.  When I'm done all the silly footnotes with names at the bottom will be gone.  Also, an entire column devoted to the outside links will be gone. Vidor 19:47, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

text:  Unfortunately, it's just the two of us commenting. I'm mostly concerned about doing away with the table, because eventually someone will come along and re-create it anyway. Gimmetrow 05:10, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

:It was not the same player.  Twice in an inning by one team has happened 7 times in all, according to Grand slam (baseball). Neier 11:57, 28 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: 2 grand slams in one inning

message: This page clearly needs to be moved as the title does not assert the content properly.  The move would be to "List of Major League Baseball single-game records".  Thoughts? //Tecmobowl 06:50, 18 June 2007 (UTC)

message: This entry needs to be updated: the feat was achieved (apparently 3rd time in history) by the Orioles' Erik Bedard against Texas on 7/7/07 in a complete-game shutout: 2 hits, no walks, no errors, and both baserunners erased in double plays- total 27.4.152.222.226 15:52, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Although Bedard faced the minimum number of batters (27), this is not a case of 'first 27 batters retired' as the two guys who were erased on double plays were baserunners, not batters.  So while this doesn't change the record, it does raise the question, how many (if any) times has a pitcher pitched a complete game and faced the minimum number of batters without getting a no-hitter?  If the answer is a low enough number, it seems like a record that should be added to the list.  CruiserBob 05:05, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

message: The title of the article refers to single-game records, but many of the entries are single-inning records. I think the latter should be broken out into their own article.--BillFlis 00:08, 30 July 2007 (UTC)
