  1. Wow, that's hard. Joe DiMaggio, Mike Piazza, and Rocky Colavito, Roy Campanella, and then I draw a blank. Rico Petrocelli? Did I get them all? Why the thumbs down? Are you an idiot? I tried to answer the question.
  2. Actually, there were 6 players in MLB history with Italian roots that hit 40 HRs in a season. Roy Campanella (1953) Jimmy Gentile (1961) Rocky Colavito (1958, 1959, 1961) Joe DiMaggio (1937) Rico Petrocelli (1969) Mike Piazza (1997, 1999)
  3. I didnt think there were any italians in MLB,see whoever gave me thumbs down ! I was right no Italians in MLB!
  4. There have only been 6 Italian-born players in MLB history, and only one of them hit any home runs at all during his time. in the majors; none hit that many home runs in a single season.
