Home Run #6

True Distance: 451
Hitter: Miguel Cabrera
Date: September 2, 2016
Opponent: Kansas City Royals
Stadium: Kauffman Stadium
Pitcher: Peter Moylan

When pitchers make mistakes, hitters often capitalize. Miguel Cabrera isn’t like any other hitter, though. Moylan challenged Cabrera with an inside fastball, and was punished as Miggy squared it up and clobbered it into the fountains at Kauffman Stadium.

“Moylan does not have enough tricks in his bag for Miggy,” said Fox Sports Detroit commentator Rod Allen.
