HR record question...

[bongo870]

As Ryan howard hit his #299th home run tonight who was the fastest to hit 300 home runs in at bats? I know Howard has (fastest to hit) 100 and 150 and 200 and even 250 home runs but will he have 300?
Howard is at bat #4,031

I know McGwire was the fastest to 400 HR with 4,726, just ahead of Ruth. There is a big drop off between them 2 and the next guy (Killebrew), so I would say one of those 2 was also the fastest to 300.

If I did this right......

Babe Ruth (3,830)
Mark McGwire (3,837)
Ralph Kiner (3,883)
Harmon Killebrew (3,928)

So Howard should not get the 300 then....Thanks for the info guys
