A little more than two weeks after all of our all-time state baseball records in team categories were added to this site, it’s now time to do the same for the much more complicated and more massive individual categories. For this post, we are going over the leaders for all hitting & offensive categories. California high school baseball state records have never been online before and we now have them all updated and ready to go in plenty of time before the 2021 season.

Note: We’re going to make this a free post on CalHiSports.com, but the much longer state record lists we’re going to link to will require a Gold Club membership. We now have extensive state record categories in our online archives in football, boys basketball, girls basketball and baseball plus all-state team listings for more than 40 years. We also will have additional baseball features on players and teams coming soon for Gold Club members as well and we will be doing these same state record updates soon for all teams/individuals in softball. To become a Gold Club member for as low as 6.8 cents per day to support this continuing work, CLICK HERE.

Note: We of course utilize MaxPreps.com leader lists for current players and teams and we encourage all schools and coaches to use that platform. There can be errors in those lists, however, that are not fixed and there are still a few players & teams who have unreported totals. MaxPreps also only goes back to the early 2000s. All California records before that were obtained through research by Cal-Hi Sports. We are the only source for state baseball records in California.

      You’re looking a post from four years ago during pandemic that we ran for free and did not include every single category we have.
      In our online records, most hbp in a game is four and for a season it’s 15.
