You like three-run homers? How about SEVEN of them!? That’d be something.
Well the Indians didn’t hit seven three-run homers, they only hit three, but that’s still impressive, right?
The three big dongs tonight, en route to a 10-4 win over the Astros, came off the bats of Jason Kipnis, Carlos Santana, and Roberto Pérez. Kipnis’s home run was the dagger in the sixth inning that put the Indians up by six, and he also singled in the fifth. Roberto, on the other hand, gave the Indians their first lead of the game with his three-run shot in the second and pushed the lead to three with his solo shot to lead off the sixth.
