Triston Casas is back on the board.
The first baseman went deep Tuesday night with his fourth homer of the season for the Double-A Portland Sea Dogs. It also was just the first home run since May 23 for Casas, considered by many to the top overall prospect in the Boston Red Sox farm system.
Take a look:
It’s worth noting that Casas didn’t play from May 24th through June 7. So, his homer drought needs some context.
Nevertheless, Casas has hit .235 with just one homer and 12 RBIs since returning from the Olympic qualifier. Perhaps his blast Tuesday night will spark a hot streak that he’ll carry into the Tokyo Olympics.
