There are a total of 448 families with two or more brothers playing in the Major League Baseball (MLB). Among these, seven families recorded records of brothers hitting home runs in the same inning as players on the same team. However, this year, the Naylor family is the first to leave such a record on Siblings Day, which is celebrated every year on April 10 (local time). Cleveland brothers Josh Naylor (27) and Bo Naylor (24) both hit home runs in the bottom of the fourth inning in a home game that day, leading the team to a 7-6 victory over the Chicago White Sox.

My older brother, who was the number 4 hitter, hit a home run first. Josh hit a one-run home run in the bottom of the fourth inning when the score was 0-5 with one out and no runners on base. Next, Bo, the 7th batter, drew a 2-run arch with 2 outs and runners on first base, sparking the chase to 3-5. The White Sox pitcher who hit home runs repeatedly was Eric Peddy (former NC, photo), the MVP of the Korean Professional Baseball regular league last year.

The Naylor brothers, who have been playing together in Cleveland since 2022, hit a home run against the same pitcher (John Gray) in the top of the third inning of a visiting game against Texas on July 14 last year. Josh said, “Gray is not the first pitcher to be hit by my brother in succession. “When he was a kid, it was common for him and his younger brother to hit back-to-back home runs against their father in the backyard,” he said with a laugh. The Naylor brothers are the third brother in MLB history to hit two home runs in the same inning.

The Naylor brothers recreated the ‘family glory’ even when the game was tied in the bottom of the 10th inning when they were down 5-6. Josh, who came to the plate with one out and two on second base, tied the score at 6-6 with a double. Afterwards, the White Sox had the bases loaded, but Bo ended the game by calling in Tyler Freeman, his older brother’s pinch runner, with a hit to right.

Ha-Seong Kim (San Diego) recorded 2 hits in 4 at bats, 1 stolen base, and 2 runs against the Chicago Cubs in the home game that day, helping the team to a 10-2 victory. Ha-seong Kim made his third error of the season during defense in the top of the fourth inning, giving him an excuse to concede a point. However, in the bottom of the 4th inning, he made up for his mistake by hitting his second triple of the season and scoring a run. Lee Jeong-hoo (San Francisco) did not play in the home game against Washington that day for a rest.
