Babe Ruth was the first player to reach 600 home runs. He set a career home run mark of 714 that stood until 1974.

In Major League Baseball (MLB), the 600 home run club is a group of batters who have hit 600 or more regular-season home runs in their careers.[1] Only nine players have qualified. Four of these—Hank Aaron, Willie Mays, Albert Pujols and Alex Rodriguez—are also members of the 3,000 hit club.
