When he was just a boy, Franmil Reyes derailed a train when he reached out to touch it as it passed. The train flew off of the tracks, burst into flames, and incinerated the nearby woods. After carrying all of the local creatures to safety on his back in one trip, Franmil ventured back in to survey the damage. He found a length of still-glowing maple that he whittled into a bat with his teeth. He has used it ever since. [citation needed]
Reyes launched two moonshots today (one 450+ feet “into the batter’s eye shrubbery” according to Tom Hamilton) and led the Cleveland Indians’ offense in an 8-5 victory.
