Most Home Runs by a Second BasemanThe player with the most home runs by a second baseman in the National League was Jeff Kent with 351 home runs. Kent played 17 years in the Major Leagues, and had a total of 377 career home runs.The player with the most home runs by a second baseman in the American League was Joe Gordon with 246 home runs. Gordon played 11 years in the Major Leagues, and had a total of 253 career home runs.
In most cases, the second baseman will be covering 2nd base on a hit or fly out to LF.
The term 'double play combo' refers to the second baseman and the shortstop. The law of averages says that most balls hit in the infield are going to be hit to either the shortstop or the second baseman since they are playing towards the middle of the field. So most of the double plays a team makes are with the second baseman, shortstop, and first baseman.
