I think the answer to every Brave's trivia question should be Dale Murphy.

Heck of a nice guy, and great player as well...last I heard he was doing Missionary Work in the Boston area...

None of them among the first 3.

Aaron, Davey Johnson, and Darrell Evans. Johnson hit 43 homers in 1973, further strengthening the argument that the fences were brought in for Aaron's pursuit of Ruth. Johnson's 43 were 25 more than his next best year in Baltimore, when he had 18, and nearly one third of his career total!

I am late to the party...but I remember that...they had a nice TV commerical the following season (1974) which featured the trio having hit over 40 a piece. There was also a big gap between Johnson and the next 2B to hit 40, which I think was Ryno Sandberg in the early 1990's.

This player led the Milwaukee Braves in RBI in 1964, with 109, while his brother led the Braves in being hit by pitches in 1957. Who is he?
