Rays set club record for most homers in month

When B.J. Upton ripped the first pitch he saw Tuesday into the left-field seats at the Rogers Centre, he helped the Rays set a club record for most homers hit in a month (39), topping their total from August 2005 and August 2008.

The Rays entered Tuesday's game tied with the White Sox and Rockies for most homers in June in the majors.
