What happened: The homer cleared the left-field wall from the right side in the season finale. It completed the first 300-homer, 200-steal pairing by a shortstop.
Why it matters: As a switch-hitting shortstop, the first shortstop with 300 home runs and 200 steals sets a new power-speed benchmark at the position. The mark now anchors his 2026 regular-season line heading into awards season.
By the numbers: 300 home runs, 200 stolen bases; first shortstop to reach both marks.
What to watch: Award voting and the offseason program are next on the calendar.
