Nelson Cruz has once again caught fire with his home run swing for the Minnesota Twins as he continues to move up the all-time Home Run List.

After what seemed to be a two week long home run drought, Minnesota Twins designated hitter Nelson Cruz finally got his power swing back at Target Field this last week against the Kansas City Royals.

The first of the two hit in the Twins Saturday doubleheader was just like any of Cruz’s ordinary home runs.
