Where Home Run Kings do their damage

There are 22 active players with more than 300 home runs. I'm going to list the five parks in which a player most frequently homered and the number of homers in each, and you identify the player. I'll leave the name of the first park blank, so it's not too much of a cakewalk.

Example:


a. ______________, 216
b. Chase Field, 13
c. Dodger Stadium, 13
d. Olympic Stadium, 9
e. Busch Stadium, 9

  2. I object to Aramis Ramirez being labeled a HR king. And I object to Scott Rolen just in general.

  3. No one has ever been excited about Aramis Ramirez. That's just the row he's forced to hoe.

    I included Rolen for the Sims's sake. Adam Dunn, of course, is for my own.
