Without statistics, baseball would just be a bunch of guys hanging out in the sunshine, some of them drinking beer and eating peanuts. Plunk Biggio is "dedicated to Craig Biggio and his (probably unintentional) Quest to break the all time major league career record for getting hit by pitches." From the most recent post:
June 7th is one HBP away from tying for Biggio's most plunked day of the
year, with 5 currently. Only April 29th has had 6. Ron Darling of the Mets
hit him on June 7, 1991, Yorkis Perez got him in 1995, Heath Murray did it
in 1997, Shawn Chacon in 2001, and Chad Bradford committed Biggio plunkery
in 2002.
