Billy Williams' unique 4-hit game By JohnW53 on Feb 19, 2021, 4:40am CST + While batting .290/.361/.492, Williams made 2,510 hits. Thirty times, he had 4 in a game, including 8 in which he went 4 for 4. Twice, both in 1969, all 4 of his hits were for extra bases. On Wednesday, April 9, in the second game of the season, Williams smacked 2 doubles, walked, then smacked 2 more doubles, as the Cubs thumped the visiting Phillies, 11-3. It was a different story when he did it again, on Friday, Sept. 5, in the opener of a weekend series against the Pirates at Wrigley Field. .......... STRANDED TWICE, CIRCLED TWICE After Steve Blass retired the first 2 Cubs, Williams doubled to center field. Ernie Banks then popped up to end the inning.
