Jack Suwinski of the Pirates hit .202 in 106 games with 19 homers and 38 RBIs. He had 30 RBIs on the homers, which means he had about 100 games worth of plate appearances in which he drove in eight runs.
What was even worse was that he hit .112 on the road and drove in seven runs, five on homers.
Or how about this...all of his RBIs off of LH pitchers came on five homers. He had 106 other PAs against LHP in which he went 7-for-93 with 11 walks and no RBIs
