Career Home Run Total: 354 HR (224 w/Diamondbacks)
Best known for his walk-off single in Game 7 of the 2001 World Series against the Yankees, Luis Gonzalez ranks as the Diamondbacks’ top slugger. Like the Rays, Arizona entered the Majors in 1998. In their 25-plus years as a franchise, the Diamondbacks have fielded a few star hitters. Paul Goldschmidt was a six-time All-Star for the D-Backs, and sits second on Arizona’s home run leaderboard with 209 HR. Steve Finley, an outfielder on the ’01 team, hit 153 homers in six seasons.
However, the World Series hero is unquestionably the franchise’s premier slugger. Gonzalez joined the D-Backs in 1999 and hit 26 HR. After hitting 31 the following year, Gonzo exploded en route to Arizona’s World Series triumph. Gonzo mashed 57 HR and drove in 142 runs for the champs — finishing third for the NL MVP and taking home his only Silver Slugger award.
