The Fifteenth

Miguel Cabrera may be playing out his career, but he still has a few big hits in him. He pinch-hit for the Tigers in the bottom of 11th for the Tigers, the game with the Giants tied at six. He delivered an RBI single for the Detroit victory.

That hit gives Cabrera 15 walk-off RBI for his career. The Day by Day Database contains situational hitting data back to 1974, and it that time he is the 33rd player to reach 15 WORBI. The list of other players with 15 is a pretty good one:

Craig Biggio15
George Brett15
Josh Donaldson15
Ron Gant15
Luis Gonzalez15
Chipper Jones15
Carney Lansford15
Fred McGriff15
Tim Raines15
Sammy Sosa15
Miguel Tejada15
Matt Williams15

Albert Pujols owns the most with 22, with Rickey Henderson right behind him at twenty one.
