While I was writing the post for Scott Coolbaugh's 1989 Topps Major League Debut baseball card over on my other blog, Traded Sets, I noticed that Coolbaugh had exactly 2 homers in every year of his 4-year career.

He's the only guy to have 2 HR in each year of a 4-year career.

These 5 guys all had exactly 1 HR in each of their first 4 years:

                   From  To   Ages Seasons Link to Individual Seasons
+-----------------+----+----+-----+-------+------------------------------+
 Rey Ordonez       1996 1999 24-27       4 Ind. Seasons
 Carlos Perez      1995 1999 24-28       4 Ind. Seasons
 Dan Briggs        1975 1978 22-25       4 Ind. Seasons
 Chris Arnold      1971 1974 23-26       4 Ind. Seasons
 Johnny Klippstein 1950 1953 22-25       4 Ind. Seasons

However, they all had careers longer than 4 years, so they don't qualify as having hit the same number of homers each year of their career.

I did some searching for guys who hit more than 2 homers (and the same number of homers) in each of their first 4 years and couldn't find anybody.

I also did some searching for guys who hit the same number of homers in their first 3 years.

These guys all hit 3 each of their first 3 years:

+-----------------+----+----+-----+-------+------------------------------+
 Robert Fick       1998 2000 24-26       3 Ind. Seasons
 George Williams   1995 1997 26-28       3 Ind. Seasons
 Dave Clark        1986 1988 23-25       3 Ind. Seasons

But all had careers longer than 3 years.

Jason Lane had 4 HR each of his first 3 years, but he's still active (although didn't get to the majors last year.)

A guy I'd never heard of, Willie Kamm, had 6 HR each of his first 3 years but played 13 years total. Similar story for Bobby Morgan who started with triple 7's. And Lloyd Moseby with 9's.

Can anybody find a guy to rival Coolbaugh in this stat? How about for something other than HR?

(Of course, I'm not considering guys who hit zero homers each year...there are plenty of those.)
