A player hitting three home runs in a game is a remarkable feat. It’s also both relatively rare and fairly fluky, not unlike hitting for the cycle or throwing a no-hitter.
So far this season, there have been four such games, by Adolis García, Paul Goldschmidt, Jordan Diaz and Trayce Thompson. Among the 14 three-homer performances last year, you might recall it was done by stars like Yordan Alvarez, Bo Bichette, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Anthony Rizzo, as well as lesser-knowns like Isaac Paredes, Michael Perez, Jack Suwinski and Lane Thomas.
So while you might think most of the game’s best current sluggers would have pulled off a three-homer game, in fact, a number of big names have not. Here are the 10 active players with the most multi-dinger games who have not hit three long balls in a contest.
