He's got 8 games to tie/beat Ruth, and 16 games to tie/beat Maris.
It sure looks like he's going to get them both the way he's been going. He's averaged a home run over every 2.474 games so far over this season. So just keeping to that average he'd be on track to hit another 6 or so homers this year. But he's really been on fire lately it seems, so if he can keep it going, who knows where he may end up. Great season and achievement for sure.

Great analysis. I totally agree 👍
