    Not the most home runs for one time. Most career home runs in which they all came for one team. Bonds hit home runs for Pittsburgh and San Fran - two teams.

    It’s a tough question than I thought when I was wondering about it…

    Aaron. It was the same team- just different cities. (733 w ATL has to be the most, if you co0unt them as different teams.)

    The Braves count as one team in 3 different cities, but Aaron hit 10 home runs as a member of the Milwaukee Brewers, a second team.

    Most home runs all for one team. My first thought was wrong, even after I looked at the all time home run leader list…

    Schmidt with 548 home runs, all for the Phillies is correct.

    My first thought was Killebrew, but apparently some of his 573 home runs were for the Royals.

    Mantle with 536 home runs all for the Yankees was second…

    I thought of Killebrew, too. I don't remember him finishing his career with KC.

    548 Schmidt (15 players have more HRs, but not with one team.)
    536 Mantle
    521 Williams

    Aaron has the most for one team (733 with the Braves), but not all with one team.

    Category: Red Sox World Champions this century

    Name the players who each had the most hits in a season in which the Sox won?

    Hint: I guessed two right, and never would've guessed one of the others...

    Here is one:

    It's been 20 years since our 2004 championship. Who leads the Sox in these categories over the past 20 years (1,000+ PAs?)

    OPS (He led in OBP & SLG):

    HRs & RBI (same guy):

    BA:

    SB:

    fWAR:

    (Hint: 4 different names if 5 slots.)
