The Rays celebrated Easter by hiding plenty of baseballs in the outfield seats, extending their unbeaten streak to 9 in a row, and pushing the homerun total to 24, which is one shy of the record for the most ever through nine games.
A’s starter Kaprielian allowed the first run of the game by feeding a fastball inside to Wander Franco, who turned on the inside pitch and buried it 383 feet away in right field. The pitch wasn’t a mistake! It’s just really hard to find a hole in Franco’s swing.
Franco leaves us WANDERstruck with the first homer of the afternoon!
