Players Who Tied For League HR Title 
 
Since 1900, league home run championships have been tied between two 
players 24 times, 13 in the National League and 11 times in the 
American League. Hall of Famers Mel Ott, Ralph Kiner and Reggie Jackson 
hold the mark by tying for their league's home run leadership three 
times.
