Good one! I wrote about Harry Heilmann in "Diamond Duels" and he had a knack for finishing strong. He won batting titles in 1921, 1923, 1925, 1927 and for the last two, he had a six-hit day in 1925 in a doubleheader, then a seven-hit day in 1927 to win the title. Wild, huh?

Thanks John. Heilmann did not sit down in the DH just like someone else who's famous for going 6-8 in a DH to bat .406!
