With a 5 for 5 game in which he hit two home runs and drove in ten runs, Mark Reynolds became just the 15th player in MLB history to reach double digits in RBIs in a game.
He tied Washington Nationals’ third baseman Anthony Rendon for the franchise record, which Rendon set last season.
Reynolds ended up just two short of the MLB record of 12 RBIs, which was set by St. Louis Cardinals’ first baseman Jim Bottomley in 1924, and tied by Cards’ outfielder Mark Whiten back in 1993.
Reynolds hit a walk-off home run in Friday night’s win over the Marlins, and homered in his first at bat on Saturday, hitting a two-run shot, then hit an RBI double in his second at bat against Miami’s Wei-Yin Chen, before adding a two-run single in his third trip to the plate, for four consecutive hits.
