Mark Reynolds (Arizona Diamondbacks) still leads all Major League players in "Home Runs Hit" (5). Chris B. Young (Arizona Diamondbacks) and Torii Hunter (Los Angeles Angels) are still the only players besides Reynolds who have hit 4 homers. 14 players have 3 homers (10 from the NL and 4 from the AL).
Bronson Arroyo still leads all Major League players in "Home Runs Surrendered" (5). Daniel Cabrera (Baltimore Orioles), Jason Jennings (Texas Rangers), and Roy Halladay (Toronto Blue Jays) are all tied for second place with 4.
- So what was the homer of the day? Was it Jason Bay's solo jack to tie the ballgame between the Pirates and the Chicago Cubs in the bottom of the ninth? Maybe, for you Cardinals fan out there, it's the first (or maybe the second... I dunno) home run hit by Albert Pujols; he's going to get red hot now... I can feel it.
- Frank Thomas didn't hit a home run yesterday! YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!
- I'd like to take this time to, once again, ask what your thoughts are about a possible "Home Run of the Day" page; something like SSR's "Caption of the Day" page, except it's for home runs (derrr). What do you guys think?
