Another day, another set of home run milestones for the immensely talented Los Angeles Dodgers rookie.
Cody Bellinger went deep for his National League-leading 23rd home run of the season on Sunday against the Colorado Rockies. In the process, he tied Adam Dunn - who accomplished the feat in 2001 - for the most home runs by an NL rookie in any month with 12.
Last, but certainly not least, Bellinger's 23 homers in 57 games are the most first-half big flies by a Dodgers player since Shawn Green had 26 in 2002, according to ESPN Stats & Info.
Keep 'em coming, kid.
