Crash Davis matches Reggie

Wrapping up the final series of the first half, Orioles first baseman Chris Davis homered in his fourth consecutive game as the Orioles defeated the Blue Jays 7-4. The homer, a two-run shot in the third inning against Josh Johnson, was his 37th of the season, tying Reggie Jackson?s American League record for first-half home runs. In the interest of fairness (first halves vary in length based on scheduling), D.J. Short astutely pointed out on Twitter that Davis entered a tie with Hank Greenberg and Luis Gonzalez for home runs through 95 games.

For those keeping score at home, Davis is now more than halfway to Barry Bonds? single-season home run record of 73 and 24 home runs away from tying Roger Maris at 61 home runs, which some ? including Davis himself ? consider to be the legitimate single-season record.
