Only the Yankees (16,350) and Giants (14,804) have hit more.
The Cubs have hit at least 1 homer in as many as
17 consecutive games. They have homered in at least
10 straight games
5 games in a row.
Intriguingly, neither have the Braves, who had hit the fourth most total homers, 14,047.
Nor have the Dodgers, Phillies or Reds. That makes 5 of the 8 National League teams that existed before 1962. The record for all 5 teams is 5.

On the other hand, the Padres had a streak of 6 by Graig Nettles in 1984.

THERE is now an “appalling” amount of rubbish littering the verges in one Herefordshire village, says one man who spends time picking up water bottles, crisp packets and beer cans. Ed Lennox says the amount of litter piling up on the B4385 outside his house near Leintwardine in north Herefordshire is disgusting, and he is calling on Herefordshire Council to do more. Mr Lennox had complained to the outgoing council chief executive Alistair Neill, but the problem persists. “It’s disgusting, and I don’t seem to get anywhere with the council in cleaning it up. I think it’s a health hazard,” Mr Lennox said.
