Consecutive Home Run Records

Baseball Almanac is pleased to present a record book full of baseball milestones for consecutively hit home runs — including two, three, and four game marks, pitcher's data and both sides of the plate records.

"He was something like zero for twenty-one the first time I saw him. His first major league hit was a home run off me and I'll never forgive myself. We might have gotten rid of Willie (Mays) forever if I'd only struck him out." - Warren Spahn

Consecutive Home Run Records

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, 6, 17, 1978, and Del Unser on June 30, July 5, 10, 1979.

The most consecutive home runs ever hit during a single game of play is four held by Mike Cameron, Rocky Colavito, Carlos Delgado, Lou Gehrig, Bobby Lowe and Mike Schmidt.
