If you were a fan of the ‘Cody Bellinger Bombs’ series, we have a special treat in store for you. After all, Bellinger just finished a first-half of the 2019 season in which he blasted a club-record 30 home runs.
Obvously, there’s nothing I love more than a good old fashioned home run. While it’s great to see anyone hit one, there’s special added significance when it’s Cody Bellinger.
Perhaps all of Los Angeles understands the impact of when a ball hits the seats off Bellinger’s Louisville Slugger.
So in honor of Cody and his home run trot, let’s throw it back. Indeed, I am paying homage to the new MLB commercial with that line. Enjoy this, and send it to a friend who will enjoy it!

One more fun Bellinger-bomb factoid for you: he hit his 25th home run of the season in 2018 and 2019 against the same pitcher. Indeed, that pitcher was German Marquez of the Colorado Rockies. Of course, the biggest difference was that one occurred in the first half of a season, and one was in game 163.

Which one of these is your favorite? For me, it’s either the one off Jacob deGrom or the walk-off moonshot off Arizona’s Yoan Lopez. My reasoning is simple – it was his longest home run of the season – and he got revenge for the Joc Pederson situation on Lopez.
If still permitted to score Bellinger home runs, that would be my first ’10-plus’ ever.
