The reason I play sims is to consider "what if"'s of different scenarios, not impossible ones.
Maybe not fifteen games, but a quick sampling at baseball-reference.com shows that the Cardinals had an eleven game stretch between July 3rd and July 20th, 2012, in which they hit only four home runs. So I'm guessing that, whether or not they actually ever hit 4 in 15 games, it's certainly possible.
