On April 7th, Junior Kemenero flashbacked in November when he visited the Tropicana Field construction site during repairs. The 22-year-old Ray Star dropped off donuts for workers and dreamed big from the bleachers. Fast forward six months and he crushed a home run in the stadium's reopening game against the Cubs on Monday, a 401-foot blast to left, at over 106 miles per hour. He backed it up with another home run the day before against the twins, marking the 11-time he's gone deep and back-to-back games. After a slow start with teams pitching him carefully, Kemenero's heating up and feeling more comfortable at the plate. Fans gave him the roaring welcome he craved, just like he imagined shouting his own name from those seats. The crowd's energy fueled the Ray's 6-4 win and Kemenero soaked it all in after the game. Pictures are avoiding the zone this year, down to 39% in-zone compared to 49 last season, but he's chasing less outside at two, and still punishing mistakes, like that ankle-high
splitter from the twins that no one else has homebored on this. Year. Now settled back in his home park, Kemenero's ready to own the Trap, with that superstar swing, horn blaring every time he connects. That wraps MLB news today. Brought to you with AI, I'm Corey with The Story.
