When a player approaches 30 homers at the All-Star break -- the unoffical, if not actual, midpoint of the season -- the excitement of a potential 60-plus-homer season really swings into gear.

"I think it's something definitely to be proud of," said Chris Davis, who tied the American League record with 37 home runs before the break in 2013.
