Answer 2

The modern day record is Craig Biggio,.who had 285 as of the end of the 2007 season when he retired. Prior to Biggio, the modern-day record belonged to Don Baylor, who was hit 267 times.

I think Biggio should come out of retirement to get hit 3 more times and take the record that is rightfully his!!!!
