What happened: Francisco Lindor reached the 300-home run mark for his career. The milestone concludes a chase that stretched through the final weeks of September.
Why it matters: The achievement places him in rare company at his position. He becomes one of the few primary shortstops in major league history to reach the power threshold.
By the numbers: Lindor stands alone as the only shortstop in league history with 300 home runs and 200 stolen bases. He is also the first switch-hitter to reach 300 homers while playing primarily at the position.
What to watch: He will look to add to his career totals as the 2026 regular season concludes.
