VIDEO: Nolan Arenado smashes 2 homers to continue awesome power surge
Not even Madison Bumgarner can cool down Nolan Arenado's red-hot bat.
The Colorado Rockies third baseman launched a pair of homers - including a two-run shot off Bumgarner - Sunday afternoon versus the San Francisco Giants to increase his total to 24.

Arenado, who now has eight homers in his last seven games, also set a club record by collecting a hit and a run in 12 consecutive games. Additionally, he's joined some elite Rockies sluggers with his power surge.
Nolan Arenado's 24 home runs are most by a Rockies player before July 1 since Larry Walker & Todd Helton in 2001 (25 each).
