Homers in Consecutive Games

TreAnt985 · 03-19-2002, 05:09 PM

What are the AL and NL records for most homers hit in 11 consecutive games? What about 12....and all the way up to the record of 25 consec. games?

I found an older record book that went all the way up to 25, while the current one only goes up to 10. I'm sure almost every single one has been broken, but I don't know by whom.
Also, does anyone have a list of teams that have hit a homer in 20+ consecutive games?

Actually, I did almost all of those myself! TSN's Record Book only goes up to 10, so I used an older TSN for the older team records and did the rest using a spreadsheet (to see how many homers they hit in each 11 game span, etc) and retrosheet for the boxscores.
