Any other season, Christian Yelich would be running away with his second straight National League MVP award. However, this is not any other season and Cody Bellinger has matched him home run for home run. During their series in Milwaukee, Bellinger even robbed Yelich of a home run or he would lead the NL.
Entering today, Cody and Christian both have fourteen home runs, which is tied for the most home runs before the month of May. Both the Dodgers and Brewers play today so Bellinger and Yelich will each have two games to try and set a new MLB record for home runs before the month of May.
