This Day In Baseball History: August 3, 2012

August 3, 2012

                 It was on this day in 2012, that the Upton brothers, playing on different teams and in different cities, both hit the 100^th homerun of their respective careers. Justin Upton, playing for the Arizona Diamondbacks, hit his against the Phillies in Philadelphia’s Citizens Bank Ballpark. A few minutes later, B.J. Upton, playing for the Tampa Bay Rays, goes deep in Tropicana Field against the Baltimore Orioles.

                As a footnote, the brothers both hit career homerun number 99 on the same night as well: July 20^th.

Watch the Upton boys hit their home runs.
