Pair of 500 homer guys homering
Last night was a bit or a rarity (although all seven occurrences are in the last four decades) as 500+ home run hitters Ken Griffey Jr and Alex Rodriguez both homered in the Yankees-Mariners game. It was also the second time for the more exclusive feat of 550+ players homering in a game (not surprisingly, Aaron and Mays were the other).
The complete list, courtesy of the great David Vincent:
