I believe rocky colavito hit four home runs in a game during the 1965 or 1966 season with cleveland. Am I right?
No ... that was June 10, 1959 when Rocky, playing for the Indians, hit 4 HRs against the Baltimore Orioles at Memorial Stadium in Baltimore. The most HRs he hit in a game in the 1965/1966 seasons was 2 which he did four times in 1966.
Who were 3 post World War 2 players that hit over 40 home runs in a single season but not over 200 in their career?
