    I don't know about one game, but I bet Wilt Chamberlain did it in one night.

    Yes, Wilt. He also did a few triple doubles. Maybe even a few triple triples...........he did score 100 once.image

    No one's ever hit for the "home run cycle", but several guys have gotten 3 parts of it.

    Back in 1993, Mark Whiten had the best of all the 4 homer games: Slam, 3-run, 3-run, 2-run
    My Giants collection want list

    I remember the Whiten game. The shots he hit that night were blasts. I think the last one was over the CF fence at about a 470 distance. "WOW"

    Not really an answer to the question but Mike Cameron came closest to a 5 HR game. The night he hit 4, he came up a 5th time and hit a long fly ball that was caught - literally - right against the fence.

    It wasn't that close. It was just shy of the warning track.
