Marcus Semien busted out of his slump in a big way Tuesday with a seven-hit, three-homer day in the Rangers’ doubleheader split with the Guardians. The last time this happened? Hall of Famer Joe Morgan on July 31, 1973.
Previous to June 7, Semien had three home runs on the season. He doubled his season total in one day.
Semien has now hit five homers in the month of June and is batting .355 this month, raising his batting average for the season to .221.
With 10 steals so far this season–two of which he nabbed on Tuesday–Semien is also now on pace to double his career-high in that category.
