Which is the most UNcommon event over the past 5 years?

[Joe Shlabotnik]

(If you heard John DeWan's stat of the day today at lunch, please refrain from answering)

Over the past 5 years, which is the most uncommon event in baseball:

A) Hitting for the cycle
B) A six hit game
C) A pitcher getting four K's in one inning
D) A no-hitter.
E) A triple play[/b]

I'm guessing B. C is the obvious first choice, thus, must be wrong.

Then, if it's most uncommon, I'm changing to: C.

[Boneyard]

I will go with B - I can't remember that happening recently.

I can only think of two six-hit games in all of my memory, so I'm going with that. I think there are more than just the two, but not so many more that 6-hit games are more common than any of the other things on this list.

I'm going with a 6 hit game. I don't remember any of those.

I only definitively remember 1 6-hit game (Lo Duca did it against the Mets a few years back IIRC). So I'll jump on that bandwagon.

B--a six-hit game.
