Mark Teixeira Keeps Pace with Jose Bautista For Major League Home Run Lead

Teixeira, who hit his 24th in the Yankees 12-2 win against the Brewers, also has the third lowest BABIP among qualified batters. Considering that information and the Yankees short porch, it’s not unreasonable to expect Teixeira to only improve the rest of the season. 

The Yankees also have the slim chance of having two forty home run hitters come the end of the season with Curtis Granderson sitting at 21. That’s a lot of firepower during an era that has seen offensive numbers dip.
