At this moment headed into the May 21st game, Bellinger has 22 RBI and 7 home runs in May.

You get used to thinking Puig only mashed in 2013 but his May 2014 was also what got everyone excited. Three years now.

Twelve Dodgers are tied in 7th with 22 RBI. Suffice to say, Cody won’t be one of them come the morning of June 1st.

Got to love what he’s done in 76 PA compared to everyone else on the list. Of course that is today, if he does not hit a home run or drive in a run the rest of May he’ll still be on the leaderboard but his PA totals should be over 100.

I should sort this by name and see how many multiple players we got.
How about James Loney in May, back to back 22 RBI May for Loney.

This Bellinger kid might make a new record like this every month for awhile.
