Rogers Hornsby in the linked file and below:
Season Home Run record by team progressive. Saturday, December 14, 2013
Rogers Hornsby held the season home run (HR) record for four different teams, three concurrently. Checking data since 1901, I could not find another player who had records for more than two teams. Multiple team record holders are in bold below. Red bold means a rookie set the team record...
Hornsby held the record with:
Cardinals 21-42 1921-1939; broken by Johnny Mize 43
Giants 26 1927-1928; broken by Mel Ott 42
Braves 21 1928-1929; broken by Wally Berger 38
Cubs 39 1929 tied with Hack Wilson; broken by Hack Wilson 56
In 1928 Hornsby held the record concurrently with the Cardinals, Giants, Braves.
In 1929 Hornsby held the record concurrently with the Cardinals, Braves, Cubs.
The great Hornsby changed teams three consecutive seasons and set the new team's season HR record all three times.
