Giancarlo Stanton is turning home run
http://www.texansprosale.com/kevin-johnson-jersey-c-1_31.html hitting into a performance art. He has 23 home runs over his past 41 games and a career-high 46 in 123 games this season. Due to his recent push, Stanton has a chance to reach one of baseball's rarest milestones: the 60-homer season.
The pursuit
In the month of August, Stanton has an MLB-leading 13 homers, including setting the Marlins' record with home runs in six consecutive games between August 10 and 15. This month, Stanton is averaging a staggering 6.1 at-bats per home run, meaning that during this month, chances are if you go see the Miami Marlins play, you'll see a Stanton homer.
Stanton needs 14 home runs in the Marlins' final 37 games to reach 60 homers, something that hasn't been accomplished since Barry Bonds (73) and Sammy Sosa (64) reached the mark in the 2001 season.
Outside of the span between 1998 and 2001, when the mark was reached six total times by the trio of Bonds, Sosa and Mark McGwire, the number

Stanton has played 123 of the Marlins' 125 games this season. If he maintains his current rate of home runs per game and games played, he would hit 59 home runs. Playing all 37 games puts him on pace for 60 homers.
