3 players to home runs in same game.

[RBi]

This might have been discussed before, to be honest I did not do much research for the answer.

After hearing Ernie Banks, Billy Williams and Ron Santo homered in the same game 8 times in their career, I got curious to know what trio has the most "homered in the same game" games.

Does anyone know?

I would like to see a top 5 to see where the Cubs trio would rank against some of the greats.

This will take some time.
Some of the trios I am thinking about include:
Mays McCovey Cepeda Bonds
ARod Griffey Martinez
Mantle Maris and ?
Ruth Gehrig and ?
Aaron Matthews Torre
Aaron Evans and Johnson
Armas Evans Rice
Fisk, Rice, Lynn, Yaz
Robinson Powell and ?
Bench Perez Foster
Canseco McGuirre ?
Snider Campanella Hodges

[Sultan_1895-1948]

Ruth Gehrig and ?

It won't be many if any at all, but it would have to be Lazzeri, since he spent 9 seasons with Babe and Lou. My first thought was Meusel but he started in '20 so he only had 4 seasons to be with the pair.

[Proctor, CF]

Sweeping the Series against St. Louis in Game 4 of the '28 Series, Ruth hit three homes, with Gehrig and Cedric Durst joining. I'm sure Durst doesn't factor in too much on the mightiest trio, but how about Ruth, Ruth & Ruth - Gehrig, Gehrig & Gehrig?

1. Gehrig
2. Ruth
3. Gehrig
4. Ruth
5. Gehrig
6. Ruth
7. does it matter
8. does it matter
