Jackie Bradley Jr. has carried his playoff power stroke into spring training.
(And, for the Boston Red Sox, hopefully into the regular season.)
Bradley absolutely demolished a home run Friday night in his team’s 10-6 win over the Minnesota Twins. The two-run dinger actually was the first of three consecutive homers for Boston, with Bradley, Christian Vazquez and Gorkys Hernandez combining to go back-to-back-to-back.
It was Bradley’s bomb that really stole the show, though.
The moonshot was Bradley’s third homer of the spring to go along with seven RBIs and a .324 batting average. Hard-hitting prospect Michael Chavis leads all Red Sox with four spring homers.
Andrew Benintendi also went yard in Boston’s victory.
