Dalbec joined Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story (7), Cincinnati Reds outfielder Aristides Aquino (7), former Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Dino Restelli and Seattle Mariners outfielder Kyle Lewis as the only players in MLB's modern era to hit at least six homers through their first 10 games.
On top of that, Dalbec also became the first player ever to notch a five-game homer streak in the first 10 games of an MLB career.
There hasn't been much to cheer about in Boston this season, but Dalbec's captivating streak has at least given the Red Sox one interesting storyline as their disastrous 2020 campaign winds down.
