a single season, how many, and in which season?

Answer: David Ortiz hit 54 home runs in 2006 to surpass Jimmie Foxx as the Red Sox single-season home run champion.

Foxx hit 50 HRs for the Red Sox in the 1938 season - though that was not his single-season high. He hit 58 HRs in 1932 as a member of the Philadelphia Athletics.

Ortiz had come close to reaching Foxx during the 2005 season, when he finished with 47 round-trippers.
