It's been quite a month for the Colorado shortstop.
• Cast your Esurance All-Star ballot for Story and other #ASGWorthy players
Story is the first player in history to hit seven home runs in his first six Major League games, and he's also the first player ever to hit seven home runs in his team's first six games of the season. His home runs in four consecutive games to start the season tied the longest streak in Major League history.
What's more, he is the first player since 1900 whose first four hits in the big leagues were home runs.
Five of Story's home runs have come at Chase Field, tying him for the single-season Rockies' rookie record for home runs against the D-backs. He has hit four home runs at Coors Field and one in Cincinnati this season.
Third baseman Nolan Arenado followed Story's homer with a long ball of his own to give the Rockies a 5-0 lead.
