Best hitter in buna baseball history

[lightning]

In the era I played it had to be Nathan Ross and Bobby Franks.

Seen Baxter go 0 for 3 against Deweyville so keep your vote. Seen Jacob Clark continue to stroke the ball like always.

BAXTER is the best hitter on this year's team NO DOUBT. You'd be a fool not to think so yourself.  You must not come to many games.  You hang e'm we bang e'm. haha. Cub has been seeing it well and is having a great year. But the offensive MVP from last year is my vote until he proves me otherwise.  One bad game does not make him move down in the lineup bud.

Yes I agree that tracy franklin was the best hitter in buna baseball history.

[tlftatom]

I think Tracy Franklin was the best hitter to come through Buna High School .  He hit 84 not 82 homeruns in  high school. He not only hit the homeruns he had a high batting average because he usually got on base one way or the other. We have some good ones comming up mabey they can be as good.  I agree that Nathan Ross was a great catcher proably the best Buna has had. :)

[dcbaseball]

84 Homeruns????????  Oh yeah now I remember, ESPN covered his career, I remember Chris Berman coming to Buna.

[bunabballer02]

Come on now guys yall are crazy...While Tracy Franklin and Big nate ross were excellent hitters they were nowhere close to comparing the best of all time which would be none other than a young man named BO JOE FEA!!! he is without a doubt the most consistent hitter i the history of the buna cougars...and while he is a clear all out favorite the second best hitter in Buna history would have to be without a doubt from the class of 2003 Mr. Will Dinkle...these are facts guys...look at the stats they dont lie!!!!

[bruno994]

Where do ya'll buy that good stuff ya'll been smokin'?  Or do you grow it yourself?

[besbolbenbedygud]

I'm not from Buna...didn't see him play in highschool....but I was a college teammate of Bubba Ross.......and he could flat.....out......mash!!!!!

[strike king]

HOW MANY GAMES DID THEY PLAY BACK THEN CAUSE 84 HOMERS IN HIGH SCHOOL IS BETTER THAN A HOME RUN IN EVERY GAME

[titan1313]

The alltime record for homeruns in high school is 75. It was done by Jeff Clement of marshalltown iowa it was set in 2002. The old record before that was 70 set by Drew Henson 1998 was backup qb for dallas. Tracy may have hit alot but no where near 84. I dont know if tracy hit more than bucky g or nathan r either.

[Draftbust]

I have run across a few Minor/Major league players from Buna.  Anyone know who they might be.  I was not a scout when these guys played, did they play pro ball? I would hope so, with as many home runs as they supposedly had.

[titan1313]

You can find the list of top 12 highschool homerun hitters at www.nfhs.org. You can really find any high school baseball stat known to man there and a lil fyi. Tracey didnt even hit 54 that is # 12.

In the mid 80's Buna had a very good basball team.  If I remember correctly the best hitter on that team was Randy Moss.  He could have played college baseball but chose to play football instead.  I think he batted over 500. He was not a pure power hitter but could spray the ball around the field, hit a ton of doubles and at any time could hit it out of the park... He was also a dang good catcher...  But, that whole team could hit. 

[bruno994]

Randy Moss made a great decision choosing football over baseball.  He played 4 years for McNeese, all-conference linebacker.  My dad still says he is probably the best athlete to ever come out of Buna.  And he can still kick your a-- if it needs kickin'!
