![]() Rick Wise could really swing the bat. I was similiar to him in that if I was pitching, I'd better get hits, cause we were gonna need plenty of runs to win. Wore glasses and still ripped every thing he saw. Gap shots , home runs.
Fatboy Reggie Cleveland on in relief. |

![]() Mike Hampton (Astros, Rockies) was a "beast at the plate" during the 2000's. Carlos Zambrano comes to mind more recently.
I remember Ken Brett (brother of George) was a phenomenal hitting pitching in the 70's prior to the DH.

![]() Hall of Famer Walter Johnson had what is generally acknowledged to be the greatest single hitting season ever by a pitcher. In 1925 -- at age 37, no less -- he hit .433/.455/.577 in 107 PA with two HR and 20 RBI. In addition to being a great hitting year "for a pitcher", the .433 batting average is the highest in MLB history for anyone who had at least 107 PA in a season.
