| rdfs:comment | - Jay Justin "Nig" Clarke (born December 15, 1882 in Amherstburg, Ontario - died June 15, 1949 in River Rouge, Michigan) is a former professional baseball player in Major League Baseball. He is best known for, in 1902 playing for Texas League's Corsicana Oil Citys, going 8 for 8 with 8 home runs. The success there did not turn into success in the MLB, as in his nine-year career he hit a measly 6 home runs and drove in 127 runs. Fittingly, Clarke would die on the 47th anniversary of his historic eight-homer game.
