Tieing or outhomering teams

Is the record for this 94 times by Ruth, followed by Cravath with 30 and Pike with 16? (teams must have played a decent portion of the season, not 5 games and then folded)

I'll throw in this bit of info here.

In recent years,2 players have come very close to equaling a single teams' season HR total.

In 1979,Dave Kingman of the Cubs hit 48 home runs.That same season,the Houston Astros hit 49 as a team.

In 1981,Mike Schmidt of the Phillies hit 31 home runs.The San Diego Padres hit 32 as a team.
