Davis wins the 2015 HR Title

Chris Davis hit two homers on the last day of the season to give him the 2015 home run title. A free agent now he may have played his last game with the Orioles.

Nelson Cruz lead the race most of the season but faded to second because of a groin injury.
Japhet Amador lead all minor leagues with 41 homers ( next closest had 32). He had the highest per game Avg. and had the highest 162 game PHR.
