"ince 1947, no hitter (pitchers excluded) has stepped to the plate that many times in his career without hitting a single homer."

Ben Revere didn’t hit a home run Tuesday night. That’s nothing new: Ben Revere hasn’t hit a home run since May 30, 2011, when he was with Triple-A Rochester, and he has never hit one in the major leagues. Still, Revere’s failure to hit a round-tripper Tuesday night made the record books, as he’s now reached 1,410 career plate appearances without one. Since 1947, no hitter (pitchers excluded) has stepped to the plate that many times in his career without hitting a single homer.
