Who is the last team to hit for 4 triples in a game? The team, date, and players who hit them would be good.

And can you give the answer for both the AL and NL?

Yep, it's happened in both leagues in the last decade.

Yeah, this was a pretty tough question given that the record is more than four.

The last teams to do it were the Cardinals in the NL (2003) and the Indians in the AL (2001).
