Well, considering the whimps on the mounds today, I can almost guarantee that won't happen in the majors anytime soon. Half of them will intentionally walk repeat intentionally walk McGwire with the bases loaded.

Only a handful of players have ever hit 4HR in one game in the majors and the odds of ensuring they were solo, 2HR, 3HR, and a grand slam are near infinitesimal.

If McGwire DOESN'T break Ruth and/or Maris's record, I hope some journalist happens to comment on the number of walks he has had this year compared to Griffey and Sosa.
