In 2015, there were 24 five-hit games by 22 different players with Washington’s Yunel Escobar the only major leaguer with multiple five-hit games, having produced three.
Escobar is the 20th player, since 1914, to have three or more five-hit games in a single season. The most during that span is four by Ty Cobb (1922) of the Tigers, Stan Musial (1948) of the Cardinals, Tony Gwynn (1993) of the Padres and Ichiro Suzuki (2004) of the Mariners.
