holy sh$t! 36 that might be harder to break then the home run record or dimaggio's hitting streak.

Those were the days of massive, massive ballparks where CF would be 450 feet out...tons of room for the ball to bounce around and rack up those triples.

Lance Johnson and Willie Wilson have the modern best of 21. I can't believe Brett hit 20 in '79.
