Bellinger, Max Muncy and Russell Martin homered as the visiting Dodgers kept up their longball barrage, beating Colorado 10-6 on Friday in the Rockies’ home opener.

After hitting a franchise-record 235 home runs last year, the Dodgers have connected 21 times in eight games this season. They’ve homered in every game so far.

What’s more, the 21 homers through eight games are the second-most in major-league history behind the St. Louis Cardinals, who had 23 in 2000.

“We have a talented lineup,” Muncy said. “We’re very deep. On top of that, we’re all up there and having fun.”

Bellinger hit his sixth of the year, breaking the game open with a three-run drive in the fifth. He didn’t hit his sixth homer last season until game No. 41.

“I’m just feeling good and trying to keep it going,” Bellinger said.
