• Cast your Esurance All-Star ballot for Trumbo and other #ASGWorthy players
Those A's reached 55 over 29 games, while Baltimore has hit 55 in just 27 games.
It was only fitting for the first-place O's that Trumbo would deliver the memorable blast, which traveled an estimated 410 feet. The slugger has a Major League-leading 23 homers and has been a big part of the O's offense in his first season with the club. He went deep off Padres starter Christian Friedrich, continuing to strengthen his case to be part of the All-Star Game in San Diego.
The 1961 Yankees and Milwaukee Braves rank second and third on the list for home runs in June, with 53 and 52, respectively.
The record for home runs by a team in one calendar month is 58, shared by the Orioles in May '87 and the Mariners in May '99.
