- Mickey Mantle has hit the most homers in World Series history.
- Two active players are in the top 10.
- Fifteen players have hit seven or more World Series home runs.
The list of the players with the most home runs in MLB history is unsurprisingly packed with former New York Yankees.
By far the most successful team in baseball history, playing for the Yankees has granted more opportunities to hit World Series homers.
Teams packed with power hitters haven’t always had the shortest baseball playoff odds, but it’s hardly cutting-edge insight to say that homers can change the course of a World Series.

Which Player Has Hit the Most World Series Home Runs?
Mickey Mantle has hit the most home runs in World Series history with 18.
Mantle is trailed by Babe Ruth and Yogi Berra. Duke Snider is the only non-Yankee with more than eight World Series homers.
Reggie Jackson appeared in the World Series with the Oakland Athletics in three straight years, but eight of his World Series homers came during his time as a Yankee. One of the greatest postseason performers in the sport’s history, Mr. October holds several postseason records.
Berra has three fewer homers than Ruth despite playing 34 more games. The former Yankees catcher is the most decorated player in World Series history, with 10 rings, ahead of Joe DiMaggio (nine).
The addition of further postseason rounds has made it much harder for teams (and players) to consistently reach the World Series, which is why the vast majority of players featured here played before the division series was introduced.
