Toronto Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. proved why he’s known as one of the brightest young stars during the 2021 Major League Baseball All-Star Game on Tuesday at Coors Field.
Guerrero blasted an absolute no-doubter during the third inning to extend the American League’s lead to 2-0 over the National League. It measured 468 feet to left field and left San Diego Padres shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr. watching in awe.
Check it out:
Guerrero, who is 22 years and 119 days old, is the youngest player to hit a home run in an All-Star Game since Johnny Bench in 1969, according to ESPN Stats & Info.
Hopefully there’s plenty more where that came from.
…And it’d be an added bonus if one of the five Boston Red Sox representatives were able to do so next.
