Now tied at 221 all time, with two recent players, Santana still playing at age 35, and Kinsler more recently done. Ian Kinsler never hit more than 32 homers in a year, but was productive in 14 seasons with the Rangers, the Tigers, and 3 more teams of one season each by age 37.

Santana has played mostly with Cleveland, soon to be the Guardians, but also has played with Philadelphia a season and now with the Royals.
