Probably Albert Pujols.
As of games played on August 18, 2011 ... the active MLB leaders in home runs are Vladimir Guerrero and Chipper Jones who have 446 home runs and Albert Pujols who has 438 home runs. Vlad (36 years old) and Chipper (39 years old) are a little long in the tooth and have seen their better days. It is doubtful that either will reach 500. Albert is 31 years old and has several years left in his prime so, barring disaster, Albert will probably reach 500 home runs early in the 2013 season.
Everyone in MLB history that has hit 500+ HR has also walked more than 500 times. Currently 23 players, soon to be 24 when Manny Ramirez hits 2 more HRs, have hit 500 HRs in a career and all have 500+ walks led by Barry Bonds with 2,558 walks. Most 500 HR members have 1,000+ career walks. Ernie Banks is the 500 HR member with the fewest career walks with 763.
A baseball player has averaged hitting a HR once every 7 games for most of the season. She hit a HR the last 3 games. Are her chances of hitting a HR in the next game greater than, less than, or no different
Mantle
Willie Mays. Willie hit his 600th HR on September 22, 1969. Hank Aaron is next ... his 600th came on April 27, 1971.
Harmon Killebrew
Lou Gehrig hit 30 HR's in 1935.
Yes, a hit recorded by a Home Run (HR) counts as a hit in baseball.
Kevin Mench of the 2006 Texas Rangers did it. 1) April 21 - grand slam HR against Tampa. 2) April 22 - three run HR against Tampa. 3) April 23 - two run HR against Tampa. 4) April 24 - solo HR against Oakland. Kinda like a reverse natural ... Mench's HR streak lasted 7 games as he hit a solo, grand slam, and solo HR in each of his next three games.
No this has never been accomplished. Mark Whiten had 4 HR in a game but did not hit a solo home run.
No player in MLB history has hit 60 Hr's and stole 60 bases.
