In a season where everyone has hit home runs, I suppose it makes perfect sense that the worst hitter in the majors would hit the home run that set the record for most home runs hit in a season:
Alex Gordon has the lowest wRC+ (57) for a qualified hitter this year, so of course he's the one to break the all-time HR record.

OK, that's a little unfair to Alex Gordon. He's not really the worst hitter in the league, just the worst hitter who has managed to hold onto a regular job all season.
