Blue Jays' Edwin Encarnacion: Blasts two homers against Rockies

Encarnacion hit two home runs as part of a 2-for-4 game with three RBI in Monday's loss to Colorado.

Analysis:

Encarnacion is now up to 21 homers on the year, making this his seventh 20-homer season and his fifth straight reaching the milestone. He has hit at least 34 in each of the past four seasons, and this year it looks like he can challenge his career high of 42 set back in 2012 -- he's on pace for 43 after Monday's effort. Encarnacion has done most of this work in the past two months as well -- he hit just three home runs and had a .396 slugging percentage in April.
