Best Answer

There have been 12 home runs hit by 12 different AL pitchers off of 11 different NL pitchers during interleague play since it began in 1997. Russ Ortiz is the only NL pitcher to have given up 2 HR's to pitchers batting during interleague play.

The Angels, Twins, Yankees, Athletics and Mariners have never had a pitcher hit a HR during interleague play, nor did the Brewers during their last season in the AL in 1997.

The Cubs, Rockies, Marlins, Astros, Brewers, Pirates, Padres, Giants, and the Cardinals have never given up a HR to an AL pitcher during regular season interleague play, nor have the Nationals, though the franchise did give up one in 2003 when they were still the Montreal Expos.

Esteban Yan has been on both ends as he holds the distinction as being the only pitcher to have both hit a HR during interleague play while playing in the AL and have given up a HR during interleague play to an AL pitcher while playing in the NL.

Cleveland is the only AL team to have had more than one pitcher hit a HR during interleague play. They have had four. On the other side, the Reds have given up four HRs to AL pitchers during interleague play. The only other teams to have given up more than one are the Mets and Dodgers, who have both given up two.

Hope you found this more than helpful!
