Upton Bros. Power Co.
From Elias: Justin Upton hit his 10th home run of the season in the Braves' afternoon win over the Rockies on Tuesday. Upton is the 18th player in major-league history to reach 10 homers before his team had played 20 games, and at age 25, he's the second-youngest of the group, older than only Mickey Mantle, who was 24 when he hit his 10th of the 1956 season, in the Yankees 19th game. Upton also set a Braves team record for fewest team games needed to reach 10 home runs, breaking the mark held since 1985 by Dale Murphy (20 games). In the second game of Atlanta's doubleheader, B.J. and Justin Upton hit back-to-back home runs in the fifth inning. They're only the second pair of brothers in major-league history to hit back-to-back homers, joining Pittsburgh's Waner brothers, Lloyd and Paul, who did it in the fifth inning against Cliff Melton of the New York Giants on Sept. 15, 1938. That was the last of the 27 home runs that Lloyd Waner hit in the major leagues, It was the third time this month that the Uptons have hit home runs in the same game. No other pair of brothers has done that for the same team more than once in any month in major-league history. The only other pair of brothers to homer in the same game three times in one season are the Aarons, Hank and Tommie, who had three such games for the 1962 Braves.
