Traditional baseball statistics have been replaced, to a degree, by advanced analytics. The advent of such stats has changed the way some look at the game, especially in terms of player talent evaluation.

But one baseball statistic will never go out of style — the home run.

Fans still cheer the home run more than anything in baseball and it’s still a relevant and relatable statistic.

Your Trivia Tuesday challenge this week is to name each franchise’s top home run hitter since 2000*. It’s not as easy as it seems.

You’ve got 10 minutes … good luck!

Home run statistics as of Monday, May 9, 2016.
