\"\"<\/a>With 4 months until baseball in Chicago returns, I thought it would be interesting to look at the all time rankings in both offensive and defensive categories for all iterations of the current 30 teams for the 833 games I\u2019ve identified that I have attended. We continue today on the defensive side of the ball with home runs surrendered.<\/p>\n

Based on the raw numbers, the White Sox and Cubs are far and away the leaders in this category, as they are the teams I’ve seen the most.\u00a0 When you adjust the numbers per game, the Expos jump to the top (or bottom, depending on your point of view)\u00a0of the heap, with an even 2 home runs given up per game.\u00a0 The Braves, Giants, Phillies, Diamondbacks, Miami Marlins, Nationals, and Devil Rays are the only teams below 1 home run per game.\u00a0 The remaining teams fall in between.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/tfoot>\n<\/table>\n
