List of Major League Baseball single-game hits leaders

 * Nominator(s): Bloom6132 (talk) 13:12, 26 March 2017 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I feel it has been improved significantly from the original list and now meets all 6 FL criteria. —Bloom6132 (talk) 13:12, 26 March 2017 (UTC)


 * Support good list, my concerns addressed. The Rambling Man (talk) 01:59, 15 April 2017 (UTC)


 * As the page creator, WP:CHICAGO head honcho (Green was born here) and a Los Angeles Dodgers fan, I am wondering if we should note the most total bases in such a performance, which I think is held by Shawn Green.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:00, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
 * @ – it's already noted in the 2nd sentence of paragraph two. In fact, more of his single-game records (XBH, HRs) are discussed than anyone else's in the list. —Bloom6132 (talk) 21:55, 13 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Somehow, I only saw the table and the text in the middle. I will look at it again.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 02:51, 14 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Should you mention the at bats breakdown. Only 2 had 8 at bats and the majority only had 6.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:02, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Also, do we want to mention whether any of these people reached base in other ways in addition to their 6 hits.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 03:02, 14 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Try to avoid devolving into baseball stat minutiae. This needs to appeal to general readers, a broad audience.  The Rambling Man (talk) 03:07, 14 April 2017 (UTC)


 * Support – All of my comments have been addressed and I believe the list meets FL standards. Giants2008  ( Talk ) 21:05, 11 May 2017 (UTC)

Comment: Only thing i saw is this: "no player has ever recorded more than seven hits in a game." Maybe I'm splitting hairs, but technically it should say "no player has ever recorded more than seven hits in a nine-inning game." (on a side note, trying to figure out what happened to Zaza Harvey and coming up short. six hits in a game but 86 career and falling off the face of the earth despite a .332 avg? something's up there.)

 * – No, you're right in wanting to specify so that readers don't get confused. Oh, and with regards to your side note, I think this answers it – Harvey fell ill with a stomach illness that became "so severe he could no longer continue playing". —Bloom6132 (talk) 07:21, 23 May 2017 (UTC)
 * Support. A shame about Harvey, small sample size yes but the bit I did find otherwise made it seem like he could've had a nice career. Wizardman  13:42, 23 May 2017 (UTC)

Source review passed, promoting. -- Pres N  21:24, 24 May 2017 (UTC)
