New York Yankees designated hitter Alex Rodriguez is now in sole possession of fourth place on the all-time home run list.

Rodriguez hit his 661st homer Thursday against the Baltimore Orioles, passing Willie Mays. The blast came in the bottom of the third inning. 

With Chris Tillman on the mound, Rodriguez smashed an 83-mph changeup out to center for the solo shot. After returning to the dugout, the fans cheered until A-Rod came out for a curtain call.
