After Francisco Alvarez' 2 HRs last night, he has 19 HRs in 219 at bats.
I believe he is #2 in MLB with a HR rate of 8.6% or 11.5 at bats per HR.
The only guy ahead of him is Ohtani, with a HR rate 9.6% or 10.34 at bats per HR.
Aaron Judge last year had a HR rate of 10.8% or 9.19 at bats per HR.
The most HRs by a catcher age 21 or younger is 26 by Johnny Bench.
Alvarez is tied with Josh Jung for most HRs by a 2023 Rookie and is 1 ahead of Corbin Carrol. Carrol and Jung each have more than 100 at bats than Alvarez.
