Unbelievable Rookie Power Surge: Who Shattered MLB’s Home Run Record in Their First Year?
3. 49 – Mark McGwire, Oakland Athletics (1987)
For three decades, McGwire held the major league record for rookie homers (until Judge broke it in 2017). Big Mac hit 15 homers in May and at one point, the first baseman hit three in a game and followed it up with two the following day. And unlike both Alonso and Judge, McGwire had more hits (161) than Ks (131), ultimately batting .289 on the season. The slugger – who did not win MVP even in a 70-homer season in 1998 – would go on to hit at least 30 dingers 11 times in his career.
