Yelich Had 11th Highest 2nd Half SLG Since 1946

Click here to see the list from Baseball Reference's Play Index. The minimum 2nd half PA was 200.

Then I found the difference between 2nd half SLG and season SLG for all the guys that had at least a .700 SLG in the 2nd half. Then I ranked them by this difference and Yelich had the biggest difference. Here is that list.
