Los Angeles Dodgers Veteran Max Muncy Clears 200 Career Home Runs in Blowout Win

Just because he joined the 200-home run club didn't mean Muncy was about to pack it in for the day, though. With two outs and two on in the fifth, the veteran roped a high fly ball down the right field line, hanging around in the batter's box to see if it would stay fair.

It ultimately did, careening off the foul pole for Muncy's 201st career home run. It also put the Dodgers up 14-1, taking the club one step closer to their eventual 18-2 victory.

There have now been 384 players in MLB history who have reached 200 career home runs, 35 of whom are active. Muncy hit the milestone before Jorge Soler and Justin Turner, who are still at 199.

Of those 35 active players with at least 200 career homers, five are on the Dodgers' active roster, with Muncy joining Freddie Freeman, Mookie Betts, Shohei Ohtani and Teoscar Hernández. Three more – Joc Pederson, Corey Seager and Cody Bellinger – used to play for Los Angeles, and that doesn't even include a soon-to-be entrant in Turner.

All but five of Muncy's home runs have come with the Dodgers, with the first few coming during his brief time with the Oakland Athletics in 2015 and 2016. Muncy didn't break out until his age-27 season with Los Angeles in 2018, and he has averaged 36 homers per 162 games ever since.

Muncy had just three home runs through his first 50 games in 2025, but he has hit three in his last four games alone. He will look to continue his power surge in Sunday's finale against the Yankees, with first pitch on the books for 7:10 p.m. ET.
