2012 Chachi #61 Home Run Leaders - Jimmy Rollins & Hunter Pence


The last time the Phillies team leader in home runs had less than 30 home runs was back in 2000 when Scott Rolen led the club with 26.  The last time the Phillies had a home run leader with less than Jimmy Rollins' 23 home runs in 2012 was during the dreadful 1997 season when Rolen led the way again with only 21 round trippers.  Hunter Pence, who was traded to the Giants way back on July 31st, still managed to finish second in the team home run race with 17.

Here's the rest of the top ten for 2012:

1.  Jimmy Rollins - 23
2.  Hunter Pence - 17
3.  Carlos Ruiz - 16
4.  Ryan Howard - 14
6.  Chase Utley - 11
6.  Ty Wigginton - 11
8.  Shane Victorino - 9
8.  Erik Kratz - 9
10.  Domonic Brown - 5
