Ryan Howard famously feasted on Cardinals pitching in his hometown of St. Louis, hitting .329/.452/.650 (1.102 OPS) there in his career with 13 home runs.
Howard hit all 13 of his St. Louis dingers at their newest ballpark, informally known as "Busch Stadium III," which opened just in time for his 2006 MVP campaign.

Just 28 MLB players have a home run at the ballpark as a Phillie, and just 13 have two or more.
Alec Bohm and Pat Burell each have three.
Jimmy Rollins and Aaron Rowand each have four. (Rowand hit his in just nine career games.)
And in second place to the Big Piece... it's the Big Fella with five home runs.
A home run caps Rhys' first four-hit game of his career!
