Adam Dunn hit his 20th home run of the year and drove in three to help the Reds to a 9-5 win over the Cleveland Indians. That's seven straight years of 20 homers for Dunn. He just missed eight straight with 19 in his rookie season of 2001.

He's hit at least 40 every season since 2004, and halfway through the season he's halfway there. He's in a very tight group at the top of the HR chart since the start of the 2004 season:

That's impressive company for the Cincinnati slugger.

Too bad he doesn't love baseball. Imagine what he could do if he did!
