VIDEO: Cody Bellinger Destroys No-Doubter for 20th Homer of the Season
By Brendan Azoff
The Mets would prefer to not see Cody Bellinger again for the rest of the season. After a monster day both defensively and offensively on Monday, Bellinger continued his Triple Crown pace by hitting his 20th jack of the year on Tuesday.

The home run put the Dodgers in the lead after being down one-run early, and it seems as though the majority of Bellinger's long balls are of the clutch variety.
He truly has proven that he is a superstar in this league, and with 20 home runs and an average hovering close to .400, the young Dodger is absolutely for real.
