Default 2006 Season\'s most surprising stat (baseball -- specific player)

I mainly follow the NL, so there may be numbers in the AL that are more surprising ... but the two stats I think I'm most surprised by are Bill Hall having 34 HRs and Matt Holliday having 33 HRs.

And, as an honorable mention, Barry Bonds having 26 HRs in 360 ABs. It seemed like the guy hardly played this year; yet he's again on the precipice of 30 HRs. I heard that his 26 HRs is the most by any player age 42. It's too bad his reputation is sullied, rightly or wrongly, because the guy is incredible.

What player's accomplishment this year surprises you the most?
