Max Muncy hit a go-ahead two-run home run Wednesday to tie or surpass Ron Cey for second place on the Los Angeles Dodgers all-time home run list [1, 2].
The achievement marks a historic milestone for the franchise's Los Angeles era, placing Muncy among the most prolific power hitters in the team's history [3].
The home run occurred during a game against the Philadelphia Phillies at Dodger Stadium on July 22, 2026 [1, 4]. The blast provided the Dodgers with the lead and advanced Muncy's career total to a point where he now shares or holds the second-place spot with longtime Dodger Ron Cey [1, 2].
Reports on the exact home run count vary. One source lists the blast as Muncy's 229th career home run [1], while another identifies it as his 228th [3]. Similarly, records differ on whether Muncy has tied Cey for second place or moved past him entirely [2, 1].
Muncy acknowledged the significance of the moment following the game. He said it was "really cool" to tie Ron Cey for second on the all-time Los Angeles Dodgers home runs list [2].
The game ended in a 5-2 victory for the Dodgers [4]. The win was supported by the pitching of Wrobleski, who helped the team defeat Phillies starter Zack Wheeler [4].
This milestone highlights Muncy's consistency since joining the team. By challenging the record set by Cey, Muncy has solidified his role as a primary offensive engine for the club during its tenure in Los Angeles.
“"Really cool" to tie Ron Cey for second on all‑time Los Angeles Dodgers home runs list.”
Muncy's ascent to second place on the home run leaderboard underscores the shift in the Dodgers' offensive identity toward high-power output. By reaching the 228 to 229 home run threshold, he joins an elite tier of franchise legends, ensuring his legacy in the Los Angeles era of the team.
