Jose Ramirez and Josh Naylor each topped 30 home runs in 2024, but David Fry and Steven Kwan tied for third with only 14.
It’s just the second time in franchise history two players topped 30 homers but no one else had more than 15. In 1934, Earl Averill and Hal Trosky topped 30 while Odell Hale finished third with only 14.
There have been two others times two players hit 30 homers while no one else hit 20:
Jose Ramirez drove in 33 RBI in the month of May, tied for the 14th most in a month in team history. Hal Trosky holds the record with 45, set in July 1936.
Here’s the list just from the Jacobs Field Era (since 1994):
Josh Naylor belted two home runs and drove in six against the Pirates on Tuesday.
It was his second career multi-homer game with at least six RBI, making him the 12th player in franchise history to accomplish the feat at least twice.
The others:
- Hal Trosky, 4 times

- Cory Snyder, 3
- Manny Ramirez, 3
- Jose Ramirez, 3
- Earl Averill, 2

Naylor is the 10th player in franchise history with at least 64 RBI to not be selected to the game. The list:
Hafner, Trosky and Horton never ended up making any All-Star team.
