List of Major League Baseball annual home run Leaders - wikipedia List of Major League Baseball annual home run Leaders Barry Bonds, the all - time career home run leader in Major League Baseball, led the league in home runs twice including in 2001 when he set the record single - season mark of 73. In baseball, a home run is scored when the ball is hit in such a way that the batter is able to circle all the bases ending at home plate, scoring himself and each runner who was already on base, with no errors by the defensive team on the play. The feat is typically achieved by hitting the ball over the outfield fence in fair territory without it first touching the ground, which results in an automatic home run. There is also the rarer inside - the - park home run, where the hitter circles the bases while the baseball is in play on the field. In Major League Baseball ( MLB ), a player in each league wins the home run title each season by hitting the most home runs that year. Only home runs hit in a particular league count towards that league 's seasonal lead. Mark McGwire, for example, hit 58 home runs in 1997, more than any other player that year. However, Sachs was traded from the American League 's ( AL ) Oakland Athletics to the National League 's ( NL ) St. Louis Cardinals midway through the season and his individual AL and NL home run totals ( 34 and 24, respectively ) did not lead either league. The first home run champion in the National League was George Hall ; in the league 's inaugural 1876 season, Hall hit five home runs for the short - lived National League Philadelphia Athletics. In 1901, the American League was established and Hall of Fame second baseman Nap Lajoie led it with 14 home runs for the American League Philadelphia Athletics. Over the course of his 22 - season career, Babe Ruth led the American League in home runs 12 times. Mike Schmidt and Ralph Kiner have the second and third most home run titles respectively, Schmidt with eight and Kiner with seven, all won in the National League. Kiner 's seven consecutive titles from 1946 to 1952 are also the most consecutive home run titles by any player. The most recent champions ( 2016 ) are Mark Trumbo with 47 home runs in the American League, and Nolan Arenado and Chris Carter tied with 41 in the National League. Ruth set the Major League Baseball single - season home run record four times, first at 29 ( 1919 ), then 54 ( 1920 ), 59 ( 1921 ), and finally 60 ( 1927 ). Ruth 's 1920 and 1921 seasons are tied for the widest margin of victory for a home run champion as he topped the next highest total by 35 home runs in each season. The single season mark of 60 stood for over 30 years until Roger Maris hit 61 home runs in 1961. Maris ' mark was in turn broken by both Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa during the 1998 home run record chase, with McGwire ultimately setting the mark at 70. Barry Bonds, who also has the most career home runs, set the current single season record of 73 in 2001. The 1998 and 2001 seasons each had 4 players hit 50 or more home runs -- Greg Vaughn, Ken Griffey, Jr., Sosa, and McGwire in 1998 and Alex Rodriguez, Luis Gonzalez, Sosa, and Bonds in 2001. A player has hit 50 or more home runs 42 times. Of these feats, 25 occurred since 1990. The lowest home run total to ever lead a major league was four, a feat achieved in the NL by Lip Pike in 1877 and Paul Hines in 1878.

Jimmie Foxx hit 50 home runs in 1938 but finished second in the league to Hank Greenberg who hit 58 that year. Hank Greenberg, Hall of Famer and 4 - time home run champion Harmon Killebrew led the league in home runs six times for the Minnesota Twins franchise, once while the team was in Washington and five times in Minnesota. Ken Griffey, Jr. led the American League in home runs in four seasons during the 1990s, including three consecutively from 1997 to 1999. Alex Rodriguez led the American League in home runs five times, three with the Texas Rangers and twice with the New York Yankees.

the lowest total to ever lead a league. Gavvy Cravath won six home run titles in the 1910s. Mike Schmidt led the National League in home runs eight times, the second most such titles in MLB history. Mark McGwire led the league in home runs 4 times including 52, 65, and record - breaking 70 home run seasons. His 58 home runs in 1997 led neither league due to a mid-season trade which split this total across 2 leagues. Sammy Sosa led the National League in home runs twice, with 49 and 50, but finished second four times with home run counts of 36, 66, 63, and 64. Prince Fielder won a National League home run title in 2007 while his father, Cecil Fielder, won two in the American League in 1990 and 1991.
