Gunnar Henderson Erupts With Four Hits In Rout
9 months agoBaltimore Orioles third baseman/shortstop Gunnar Henderson went 4-for-5 with a home run, two doubles, a triple, two RBI, and three runs scored in Sunday's easy 12-1 win over the Oakland Athletics. The 22-year-old put on a show in this one. Henderson first doubled in the third inning, tripled in the fourth, and then homered in the seventh. A single shy of the cycle, the young infielder roped one down the right-field line in the eighth frame, legging out a double and bypassing an opportunity to etch his name into the history books. It was quite a selfless act in a ballgame effectively decided with the score at 11-1 at that point. Henderson has left a slow start to the year in the dust, and the four-hit attack ups his triple-slash line to .249/.331/.484 with 21 dingers, 19 doubles, six triples, and 61 RBI overall.
