Giancarlo Stanton hit his 400th career HR last night (to go with his 1,791 career strikeouts) in game #1,520 that he has played. Only three players have reached the 400 HR mark in fewer games.
Name them.

A-Rod must be one of them.
I'm assuming Ruth (unless he "lost" too many games as a Pitcher)
Griffey is a good answer. Or maybe Manny?

Yea, wouldn't have guessed him either.

If you look at career HR/G leaders, there's a handful of guys also on faster pace than Stanton- Judge, Alonso, Alvarez, Tatis Jr.

Here is the answer.
The three players to reach 400 HRs in fewer games then Giancarlo Stanton were:

Babe Ruth
Alex Rodriguez and..........
Mark McGwire.

I would never have guessed him.
