The Giants entered the night five homers shy of tying the single-season franchise record, and with Mike Yastrzemski’s three-run blast, they moved to within one of tying the mark.
One of the biggest storylines of the Giants' 2021 MLB season has been the barrage of homers they have hit.
In their 100th win of the season Friday night in Denver, the Giants clubbed four more homers, moving to within one of tying the franchise's single-season record set in 2001.
Two of the four homers in the 7-2 win over the Colorado Rockies came off the bats of Brandon Belt and Mike Yastrzemski, and that led to a notable achievement for the Giants' franchise.
