Talking Long Ball, Sammy and the Rafe, Say Hey!

After looking at the possibility of Sammy Sosa hitting 700 homers, I thought it would be fun to look at the teammates with the most combined career home runs. The O's Sosa and Rafael Palmeiro are now tied with themselves at sixth. If Baltimore duo fulfills their projection of 21 home runs each, they will within a stone's throw of Aaron and Evans in fourth.

Here are all the teammates who hit at least one thousand home runs combined in their careers. Active players are designated with an asterisk:

It's nice to see the two Giant pairs tied at number nine and two sets of A's tied at #25.

Interesting chart, but looking at it led me to another question: what pairs of teammates hit the most combined home runs during the period they played on the same team together -- i.e., Ruth & Gerhig from 1923-1934, Schmidt & Luzinski from 1973-1980. I'm certain the top two spots on your list wouldn't change, but the rest of the list certainly will.
