Jake McCarthy needs two triples in final two games for rare 15-15-15-15 season

SB Nation

With two games left, Jake McCarthy needs two triples to reach at least 15 in doubles, triples, home runs and stolen bases. He has 30 doubles, 13 triples, 15 homers and 32 steals; the feat has happened only eight times in 21 seasons, by six players.

Corbin Carroll recorded the milestone in both 2025 and 2026, the only two such seasons in the past decade. Earlier examples were Shane Victorino (2011), José Reyes (2006 and 2008), Jimmy Rollins and Curtis Granderson (2007), and Carl Crawford (2006).

The Rockies have no standings outcome left to decide. Elsewhere, Houston and Texas are tied 79-81 atop the AL West with two games left; Houston holds the tiebreaker, and the division winner cannot finish above 81-81. That guarantees the first playoff team from a full 162-game season without a winning record. Cleveland leads Chicago by one game in the AL Central. In the NL, Arizona is one game behind Philadelphia for the final wild-card spot; the Diamondbacks have won six straight, the Phillies have lost three in a row, and Arizona holds the tiebreaker.
