Uptons Make History With Back-To-Back HRs 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Apr 24, 2013 11:47 am

B.J. and Justin Upton hit back-to-back home runs for the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday night, marking just the second time in Major League history that a pair of brothers have homered in consecutive at-bats.


Pittsburgh's Lloyd and Paul Waner accomplished the feat on Sept. 15, 1938.


It was the 27th time in Major League history that brothers homered in the same game.


The Uptons have homered in the same game three times this season.
