Good guess, but Ken Williams never got to 40 doubles.


The last two players did it as Red Sox and were more recent players than most listed so far.

Jacoby Ellsbury? - This one...I did come up without looking it up.

Maybe Nomar early on?

Yes! Nomar Garciaparra had 11 triples, 22 steals, 30 Home Runs and 44 doubles in 1994.

The last guy I am looking for formed his own 10-20-30-40 club last year.

Red Sox 2024 you would have to be talking about Duran but I don't think he got to 30HR?

Yes, Jarren Duran

As the 1st post states, the kind of 10-20-30-40 I was looking for for Duran was
"Name the only player to have 10 triples, 20 Home Runs, 30 stolen bases, and 40 doubles in a single season."

Sorry if that caused confusion.

I guess I'm not following current baseball as closely as I used to. I don't remember ever hearing about Jarren Duran last season, and he had a pretty impressive stat line.

Why doesn't Witt also qualify?
11 triples, 32 homers, 31 stolen bases, and 45 doubles

Witt was the first correct answer.

Ohtani would've made the list last year if he hit a few doubles and triples instead of home runs...

Peter, you are completely right. Durran did it first, and Witt did it later in the year. My bad.

So Witt did the more impressive 10-30-30-40.

So to recap, the 3 players that accomplished: 10 triples, 20 steals, 30 Home Runs, and 40 doubles in a single season are Chuck Klein, Nomar, and Bobby Witt Jr.
and the 2 players that accomplished: 10 triples, 20 Home Runs, 30 stolen bases, and 40 doubles in a single season are Jarren Duran and Bobby Witt Jr.
Bobby Witt Jr. did with 30 Home Runs AND 30 steals, and Klein did with 50 doubles.


With the new looser rules, we are seeing a lot of new Home Run, Steal combos.

In addition to Durran and Witt we have:
Ohtani was the first 50 HR and steal guy.
Acuna was the first 40 HR and 70 steal guy.
De La Cruz was the first 10 triples, 30 doubles, 20 Home Runs, and 60 steals (10-30-20-60) guy.

Nope- I've checked...and I DID find one of the two recent Red Sox, but, to be fair to the others who don't 'check', I won't reveal his name.
