Soria serving up homers in bounce-back year
Perez's solo homer 0:52 6/22/15: Roberto Perez drives a solo home run over the wall in right off Joakim Soria to cut the Indians' deficit to three runs Yet as Soria rolls on as the Tigers' closer, he's encountering a problem that Benoit seemed to battle for at least one stretch every season: Soria is dealing with a rash of home runs. Much like Benoit in 2012, however, Soria is battling home runs at a pace he's never seen in his career, even as he enjoys a bounce-back season on a contending team.
