Hunter Goodman became the first player in Colorado Rockies franchise history to record two three-homer games in the same season, accomplishing the feat on July 19, 2026 against the Cincinnati Reds at Coors Field. The All-Star catcher hit a solo shot and a two-run liner off Hunter Greene, plus another two-run shot off reliever Sam Moll, bringing his season total to 30 homers. Goodman had not homered since July 1 and took a scheduled day off before the game, saying the rest helped him reset. He also noted the hot summer air and the ballpark’s tendencies aided his performance, with the three homers traveling an estimated combined distance of 1,302 feet.

Goodman’s earlier three-homer game came on June 27 at Minnesota, making him the fourth Rockies player ever to achieve multiple three-homer games in a career, joining Hall of Famers Todd Helton, Larry Walker, and Carlos González. He is the fourth-fastest Rockies player to reach 30 homers in a season, doing so in 101 team games, behind only Vinny Castilla (97 games, 1998), Andrés Galarraga (99 games, 1994), and Walker (100 games, 1999). Manager Warren Schaeffer praised Goodman’s confidence and sync at the plate.

The achievement highlights Goodman’s power surge in a season where he also missed the Home Run Derby selection. His back-to-back multi‑homer performances underscore a rare blend of timing, rest, and the offensive environment of Denver’s high altitude.
