Bob Lennon once again leads the league in home runs, hitting 54 to bring his career totals to 656.
Al Rosen debuted on the career leaderboard last year, and retired this year with 274 career home runs. In real life Rosen hit 192 homers.
Mickey Mantle collected his 2000th hit of his career and 300th home run. With 311 career home runs at 31 years old Mantle looks to have the best chance of breaking the streak of the actual 400 club.
Duke Snider at 36 won't get there, and Mathews, Mays, and Banks at 31 have a long way to go.
