Josh Donaldson, who has drawn the ire of Yankees fans this year, is on a somewhat strange side of history after hitting his 10th home run of the season in New York’s 6–3 win over the Cubs on Saturday.
The veteran slugger, who entered Saturday afternoon’s tilt hitting just .125 (2-for-16) in the month of July, belted his second home run of the current home stand but it comes with a dubious distinction.
With the blast, Donaldson reached double-digit home runs but he only has 14 total hits in 2023. That’s the fewest number of hits while reaching the 10 home runs in a season in MLB history, according to CBS Sports.
