Report: Marcus Semien 'is seemingly the one mega signee' Red Sox would consider this offseason Marcus Semien belted his record 44th homer Wednesday.
SEPTEMBER 30, 2021 • MASSLIVE.COM
Makes history in Wednesday's win Semien went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 6-5 win over the Yankees.
Impact With his first-inning blast off Gerrit Cole, Semien became the all-time single-season home run champ at second base, with his 44 long balls topping Davey Johnson's record of 43 set in 1973. The 31-year-old is one of only four second sackers in history to hit more than 40 homers in a year, joining Hall of Famer Rogers Hornsby and Brian Dozier is a very exclusive club. Semien's September power display -- 12 home runs in 27 games -- is a big reason why Toronto is still in the hunt for a wild-card spot.
