Early front runner Mat Kemp (12) dropped 7 homers off the leader when placed on the 15 day DL. He is now back in a line up, well see if he can get back into the H.R. title race. A. Pujols (8) and J. Bautista (12) and A. Dunn (16) have had a very hot May. B. Eldred (20) is only MiLB player on track to hit 60 homers. He has already played a few games in the show this year. If they bring him up to stay he may not get the H.R. title this year, this is always a problem when doing well in the minors.
Only players with 15 or more home runs and a PHR of 50 or more are listed.
