no guesses?

How about two baby Boone's and one baby Griffey?

One of those three is a member of this exclusive club, but he had two different partners.

Well, damn! I know that the Ripken Bros went deep in a game with Griffey Jr., but Cal Sr. never played in the majors.

Any chance that Griffey Jr. and Jose Cruz Jr are involved? Maybe throw in Stan Javier as well????

Go back over who all has played with Jr. and I'm sure one of those names will ring a bell.

Man, if the Boone's, Cruz Jr and Javier aren't involved, I'm about out of names. Only other one I can come up with is David Bell :notme:

I dont think I really understand the question to answer it:notme:

Are you looking for 3 sets of brothers who had fathers play in MLB that hit a HR in the same game?

David Bell would be one that rings a bell:D That leaves one. He was a part of a famous brawl with our Astros.

Man, I give up :(

Man, I give up :(
:nono1: You're not giving up, you have 2 of the 3 (Griffey and Bell).

As far as the brawl, what's the most famous Astro brawl you can recall?

The third son is David Segui. Finally found a good list of fathers-sons, and when I saw the Segui name, it also jogged my memory of the 'Stros-'Spos melée when Collins was managing. Shoulda' snapped that Dr. Death was somehow involved.

I'll try not to forget that one in the future. The one that always comes to mind first for me is the little spat that Cedeño and Boxhead Knight had in the late 70s (I think) before they wound up being traded for each other :laff:

Jr., David and David did it twice. 1999

It was a wild one. Thing I'll always remember is Moises throwing his batting helmet and it hitting Collins.

Clemente's nephew actually went deep as well in one of the Junior-David-David home runs games :eek:
