Seventy-five homers have been hit at the stadium, which is a big-league record for the first 20 games at a ballpark. So it's not surprising New York leads the majors with 66 homers and ranks second with 5.66 runs per game behind Philadelphia, which averages 5.74 runs and tops the NL with 56 homers.

The Yankees have scored 59 runs during their nine-game winning streak while hitting 18 homers.

The Phillies are 6-1 on a 10-game road trip, and the majors' best road team at 14-5.

Brett Myers is 3-0 in four road starts entering tonight as he takes on A.J. Burnett, who is winless in four outings at the new ballpark. Get you MLB odds with Bodog now.
