Howard Goes Yard Again!!!! Twice!

Phillies First Baseman Ryan Howard took two deep last night against the Florida Marlins last night in a 3-2 victory.

Howard said he was a bit surprised the Marlins pitched to him. Even with 80 walks this season, he's on pace to finish with 64 home runs and 159 RBIs.

If you happened to see the highlights it looked like there were literally 200 people at Dolphins Stadium.

Howard became the third-youngest player in major league history to hit at least 56 home runs in a season. He is behind Jimmie Foxx (24 yrs old, 1932) and Babe Ruth (26 yrs old, 1921). This was his seventh career multi-homer game.
