Baseball Almanac Top Quote

"More than anyone else, Dale Long can relate to New York Yankees first baseman Don Mattingly's feat of homering in eight consecutive games. Long set the major-league record for homers in consecutive games while playing with the Pittsburgh Pirates May 19-28, 1956. He was watching the Yankees on television in an Albany, N.Y. restaurant when Mattingly tied the record with a fourth-inning homer off Texas Rangers right-hander Juan Guzman. 'I'm kind of displeased and pleased,' said Long, who phoned his congratulations to the Arlington Stadium pressbox. 'He's a helluva guy. If you want to have your record broken, you would pick him. How could you go wrong.'" - Campbell, Steve. Staff Writer. Fort Worth Star Telegram: Long longs to retain share of record. 19 July 1987. Page 8.

Consecutive Home Run Records | Research by Baseball Almanac

baseball almanac fast facts

In 1957, Ted Williams set a unique record of hitting the most consecutive home runs over the course of four games (September 17, 20, 21, 22) with four—all the other plate appearances during those games were bases on balls (walks).

Only two pinch hitters in Major League history have had three pinch-hit home runs in consecutive at-bats: Lee Lacy on May 2, 1978, May 6, 1978 & May 17, 1978; and Del Unser on June 30, 1979, July 5, 1979 & July 10, 1979.

Did you know that the most consecutive home runs ever hit during a single game of play in Major League history is four held by Mike Cameron, Rocky Colavito, Carlos Delgado, Scooter Gennett, Lou Gehrig, Bobby Lowe, J.D. Martinez, and Mike Schmidt?
