'tis indeed Max Muncy, not to be confused with baseball writer Max Mercy.
#1 Eric Karros - 270
#2 Ron Cey - 228
#3 Steve Garvey - 211
#4 Matt Kemp - 203
#5 Max Muncy - 179
#6 Mike Piazza - 177
The graphic of that list came up on SNB last night (LAD/SDP) which I had on but was only half-watching and with the sound off.
So I suspect a discussion about Muncy was the reason for the list, only seven years in LA and already up amongst their all-timers.
With typical years for him this season and next he could be above all but Karros.
People tend to think of Piazza more than Karros but EK was there longer, and Cey's name seems to get forgotten as Garvey stays
on peeps' minds as the fact of that franchise/era.
