Rafael Devers seeks 40 home runs for San Francisco Giants

San Francisco Giants third baseman Rafael Devers enters the final 15 games of the season with 35 home runs. After a slow start to the 2026 campaign, his recent power surge places him near a significant individual milestone. Devers needs three home runs to tie his career-best total from 2021 and five home runs to reach the 40-mark. If he achieves this feat, he will become the first Giants player to record 40 home runs in a single season since Barry Bonds accomplished the task in 2004. Last year, Willy Adames became the first Giants hitter to reach 30 home runs since Bonds in 2004, highlighting the rarity of such power production for the franchise. The team is currently polling fans regarding his likelihood of reaching the total before the regular season concludes.
