Ryan Braun ties Brewers franchise record for home runs

Braun hit his 251st home run Sunday afternoon, tying him with Robin Yount for most in franchise history.

Robin Yount is no longer alone at the top of all-time best Brewers home run hitters. With a grand slam home run off Aaron Harang of the Phillies on Sunday afternoon, Ryan Braun has tied Yount for the franchise lead with 251 total home runs.

Braun took a 1-1 curveball to left-center field, topping off a five-run inning for Milwaukee to make the score 5-1. The blast was Braun's 21st home run of the year as he re-establishes his power stroke following two down years due in large part to a damaged nerve in his thumb.
