In the 2002 World Series, the San Francisco Giants hit 14 home runs, while the Anaheim Angels hit seven, for a combined total of 21.
Matt Williams did it in 1989, 1997, and 2001.
The 2002 World Series between the Anaheim Angels and the San Francisco Giants produced 19 home runs -- 14 of them by the Giants. Barry Bonds, who had only 17 official at bats in the Series because he was walked 13 times, was the overall home run leader with four. Bonds' teammate Jeff Kent and the Angels' Troy Glaus (who was the MVP of the Series) had three apiece.
The 1911 World Series where the Athletics beat the Giants.
1. Jim Thome -- 589 home runs. Appeared in 1995 and 1997 World Series. 2. Vladimir Guerrero -- 436 home runs. Has never played in a World Series. 3. Jason Giambi -- 415 home runs. Appeared in the 2003 World Series. 4. Andruw Jones -- 407 home runs. Appeared in the 1996 and 1999 World Series.
There has not been a single world series that has NOT had a home run. And, two World Series have ended with a walk off home run, 1960 (Pirates beat Yankees in Game 7) and 1993 (Blue Jays beat Pirates).
Rangers. Yesterday.

11 home runs ***During a "series" not a game. I know the Giants had 14 one year....
Matt Williams did it in 1989, 1997, and 2001.
39 out of 50 went on to win.
The 2-2-1-1-1 format of the World Series gives each team an equal number of home games and minimizes travel, providing a fair balance for both teams in terms of home field advantage and reducing the strain of travel logistics.
The 1944 World Series pitted the St. Louis Cardinals against the St. Louis Browns. It marked the only appearance in the World Series by the Browns. The Cards won the series 4-2. Since both teams claimed Sportsman Park in St. Louis as their home field, the entire series was played in the same ball park.
Yes. Both the American League and National League teams use the designated hitter in A.L. ballparks.
Each League has four teams advance to the playoffs. These teams are the three division winners and a fourth team that has the best overall record of the teams that did not win their division. This team is called the 'wildcard' team. Usually in the first round of the playoffs, the wildcard team plays the division winner with the best overall record and the other two division winner play each other. These series are called Divisional Series and a best of 5; the first team to win 3 games wins the series. The winner of those series play each other in another series, called the Championship Series, with the winner going to the World Series. The Championship Series is a best 7 (first team to win 4 games wins the series) and the World Series is also a best of 7.
Chase Utley, and Reggie Jackson have the most home runs in a single World Series with 5. Utley hit 5 home runs in the 2009 World Series, and Jackson hit 5 home Runs in the 1977 World Series.
No ... Jackie hit home runs in the 1952 and 1956 World Series but not in the 1955 World Series.
