Edwin Encarnacion's 2nd HR of the night ties him with Mickey Mantle (1956) as the only AL players to hit 16 HRs in May — ESPN Stats & Info (@ESPNStatsInfo) May 30, 2014

It's Encarnacion's fifth multi-home run game of the month and he's now just one blast shy of Barry Bonds' all-time May record of 17 bombs.
