Reggie Jackson never hit 30 or more homers in back to back seasons.

On September 26th, 1964, rookie Mel Stottlemyre, in only the 12th game of his career, shutout the Washington Senators 7-0

AND...

He was 5-for-5 at the plate...the last pitcher to get five hits in a game!

Carlos Lee had 2 more 100 RBI seasons than Mickey Mantle did (Richardson and Kubek not getting on base at all but hitting at the top of the order sure hurt such a great team's offense).

Reggie hit exactly 29 home runs 3 times. Those 3 seasons manage to break 4 back to back 30 home run season pairings. He would have had 4 such paired seasons if he’d hit just 3 total home runs in the right years.
