McGwire, Sosa ... Griffey. Home Runs in four consecutive years. Oh, wait: the Babe.

If Aaron Judge hits 74 Home Runs in 2023 he breaks the two/consecutive seasons records. And the single season record. Monday, May 22, 2023

Home Runs in two NON consecutive years. McGwire, Sosa, Bonds, Ruth, ... Tuesday, May 23, 2023

I added Ruth after realizing that he might be close to Sosa. But for five consecutive years:
Sosa 292
Ruth 256

Six consecutive years:
Sosa 332
Ruth 302

Ruth hit 207 in the first four of the six years shown at the top, about even with Griffey.

Note: I have no idea why the blogger software (owned by Google messed up the appearance of some of the numbers. I fixed the justification but could not fix the font size. It all looked OK in the Google Sheet before I did copy/paste. Argh.
