5 for 5 game on Friday got him back up to .390. Hitting .400 for the season seems unlikely, but it would be fun to see him make a run at it.

Is Joe Jackson the only 400 hitter since 1900 not in the Hall?

If you don't include the Negro Leagues, it looks like it.

On the opposing end, we have Kyle Schwarber who is hitting a crisp .177 with 19 home runs. I'd call him a modern day Dave Kingman, but I think that's insulting to Dave because not even he in all his glory, had an average that low!

Somehow Schwarber has a career BA of .228 but the way he's going, it will be dropping. At least he does walk a fair amount so his career OBP is .338. (Kingman was .236 BA and .302 OBP).

I thought he would be helped by shifts being banned, but apparently not. He currently has 19 home runs and only 18 singles and seems to either strike out of fly out so not hitting many ground balls that have a chance to get through the bigger holes on the left side.

Scary when the comparison is to King Kong Kingman. I guess the bar is lowered. Lol
