17. In 1954, Musial set the record for most home runs in a double header. How many did he hit?
From Quiz Stan The Man
Answer:
5
May 2nd, 1954 at St. Louis: he homered five times in a doubleheader against the Giants. He hit three HRs in the opener, and then homered twice off of knuckleballer Hoyt Wilhelm in the night game. The Cards win the first game 10-6, and the Giants won the second game 9-7. On August 1st, 1972 in Atlanta, Nate Colbert (playing for the Padres) hit five homers in a doubleheader to tie the record (and drove in 13 runs, the most ever in a double header). Colbert, a St. Louis native who came through the Cardinals farm system, was in the stands that day in 1954 (he was 8 years old), when Stan hit those five homers.
