Vargas fourth Twin to homer from both sides

Both homers were hit hard, as his first left the bat at 98 mph and went a projected 375 feet, while his second had an exit velocity of 102 mph and traveled 419 feet, per Statcast™. He joins Roy Smalley, Chili Davis and Ryan Doumit as the only Twins players to homer from both sides in a game.

"I felt great," Vargas said through translator Carlos Font. "I've just been focused at the plate and trying to get the ball high in the air. I've been getting a lot of good contact. It's good because I can show everybody that I'm good from both sides of the plate.
