Yohendrick Pinango went 2-for-4 with his first career home run during Saturday's extra-inning win over the Tigers.
AI Summary
Yohendrick Pinango hit his first career home run and went 2-for-4 in the Blue Jays' extra-inning win over the Tigers, continuing his strong rookie season with a .364 batting average.
Pinango took Tigers reliever Kyle Finnegan deep for a game-tying solo shot in the seventh inning at Comerica Park. The 24-year-old rookie smashed a line-drive shot traveled just 348 feet and barely cleared the right-field wall. He's been an unexpected revelation for the Blue Jays this season, hitting .364 (16-for-44) with seven RBI through 15 games. There's some sneaky fantasy appeal here, especially if he's going to continue hitting near the top of Toronto's strong lineup.
