Baltimore Orioles Are The First Team To Reach 100 Home Runs

BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- Back on top of the American League East, the Orioles had a solid week of baseball which led to becoming the first team in major league baseball to reach 100 homeruns this season.

After the series against the Boston Red Sox, during which Tyler Wilson kept the Red Sox scoreless for eight innings, the total number of homeruns hit 103.

Chris Davis was recently named the American League Player of the Week for homering in five consecutive games, Adam Jones is back on a hitting streak with eight for the month and Mark Trumbo (now tied with Nolan Arenado) leads all of major league baseball with 20 homeruns.

No wonder the Orioles are climbing the ballots for the All-Star Game.
