Rockies shortstop Trevor Story ties the National League mark shared by Dave Kingman (Giants,1972) and Albert Pujols (Cardinals, 2001) for the most home runs by a rookie before the All-Star break

Rockies shortstop Trevor Story, with his twenty-first home run, ties the National League mark shared by Dave Kingman (Giants,1972) and Albert Pujols (Cardinals, 2001) for the most home runs by a rookie before the All-Star break. Mark McGwire established the major league record, going deep 30 times before the Mid-Summer Classic while playing for the A’s in 1987.

SS Trevor Story becomes the first player to hit two homers in his debut on Opening Day as the Rockies spoil Zack Greinke’s first start in a Diamondbacks uniform. Greinke allows 7 runs, the most for him in four years, and three homers, something he had not done since 2009. Story is also the first National Leaguer to hit a pair of homers in his debut game; four players have done so in the American League.
