We had to wait until the 10th inning this time, but Chase DeLauter did it again.
DeLauter, who had homered in the first inning in each of his first two games, hit his fourth home run in three games in the 10th inning off Seattle closer Andrés Muñoz.
He is just the second player in MLB history with four homers through three career games, joining Colorado’s Trevor Story (2016).
Story, DeLauter and Seattle’s Kyle Lewis (2019) are the only players to homer in each of their first three career games.
If DeLauter homers again, he’ll tie Story for the MLB record with a four-game home run streak to begin a career.
DeLauter is also tied with Jorge Soler (2014 Cubs) for the MLB record in total bases through four games with 17.
To add to the impressive nature of the streak, three of DeLauter’s homers have come against Logan Gilbert, George Kirby and Muñoz — none of whom are easy to take deep.
Muñoz only gave up two homers in 2025.
DeLauter’s four homers through three games also doubles the franchise record of two, previously shared by:
- Chris Gimenez, 2009
- Michael Aubrey, 2008
- Kevin Kouzmanoff, 2006
- Josh Bard, 2002
- Manny Ramirez, 1993
- Earl Averill, 1929
