A-Rod on his way to a “different” 30-30 club

With 18 errors and 21 homers through Saturday, Alex Rodriguez is within striking distance of a rather unique record.  The "30 homer/30 ERROR" club is even more exclusive than the "30 HR/30 SB" club.

Here are the members, with their position, season of infamy, and homers and errors for the year.

I would’ve guessed Butch Hobson was in this group, but he just missed(30 HR in 1977, 43 E in 1978).

Fascinating list.
