Brady Anderson always stands out in my mind. He hit 50 HR's in 1996. Next highest HR total in his 16 year career is 24 in 1999. He also hit 21 HR's in 1992. Three 20+ HR seasons in his 16 year career.

1890 Hardy Richardson 152 rbis - 58 more than his second best year and 73 more than his third best year

As mentioned earlier Bert Campaneris. 22hr 1970. Next highest year he hit 8 and he played forever!

Bob Hazel. Hit .403 as a mid season call up for the world champion Milwaukee Braves in 1957. Finished as a major leaguer in 1958.

For power Davey Johnson's 40 home run season is hard to beat.

Related but not exactly the same thing Yaz hit over 40 HR's 3 times. after those three seasons his next highest totals are:

28
23
21
21
20

Always struck me as really weird.
