Default Eugenio Suarez 4 Homer Game

Nice to see after his struggles recently. First 4 homer game since JD Martinez in 2017.

A rare accomplishment, for sure.
Eugenio is only the 19th to do it.
(There's been 24 perfect games thrown as a comparison.)
Congrats to Suarez.

Very difficult feat to accomplish. Still remember when Scooter Genett did it…

Feels very Mark Whitten- like in prestige.
Helluva night. He’s such a solid vet in that lineup.

Another crazy stat is just 5 RBIs on 4 homers....

I don’t recall seeing home run leaders in both leagues with Mendoza like batting averages. It’s a safe bet that if both Trout and Suarez win a home run title with the way their averages are, it may be a first for sub .200 winners in the same season.

That’s unfortunate.

I wonder how many times the player’s team lost after hitting 4 hr in a game?

Any stat pros out there?

That's because all his teammates we're trying to swing for the fences as well, so there was nobody on base for three of them.

Two-run and three-run homers are becoming increasing scarce thanks to the launch angle "revolution", and it's not uncommon to see games with 6-7 solo home runs.

I think there was one game last season that had 13 home runs....11 of which were solo shots.

Is this analogous to all the nba players wanting to shoot 3 pointers now, including the centers?

Everyone is just swinging for the fences.

Yep. And it was the Braves (Bob Horner) that had the 4 HRs on 7/6/86.

Baseball is wild.

Same night as a straight steal of home! Crazy night of history.

I remember Mike Schmidt's 4 HR gm against the Cubs on a day the wind was definitely blowing out at Wrigley. There was a total of 9 hr's hit in the gm that ended 18-10 Phillies.

Same weekend as the NFL draft, and during the NBA & NHL playoffs.

Baseball is largely a media afterthought until mid-summer.

Also it was Arizona and Suarez. ESPN is only going to cover it if its Ohtani or Judge.
