I learned this week that the most HR on the 1954 Baltimore Orioles was only 8 by Vern Stephens. That was very surprising, so ...
I found a table that I had created three years ago, which contains most HR per team per year (1903-2023). It includes ties, including teammates.
To view all 2,826 records, click this link.
Below is a subset of 88 records with team leader with fewer than 10 HR for seasons 1920-1979 (most recent full season matching, excluding 1981 and 2020) sorted descending on year, MaxOfHR, team.
HR is the team total.
In 1927 Babe Ruth hit 60 HR and out homered every other American League (AL) team (Ruth also did it in 1920). Including National League (NL) teams, five 1927 and six 1920 team HR leaders hit fewer than 10.
