Jac Caglianone is heating up in Double-A, and pitchers in the Texas League are paying the price. The Royals’ No. 1 prospect (MLB No. 18) blasted two more home runs on Tuesday for Northwest Arkansas. This has given him four long balls over his last three games.
In a breakout performance against Wichita, Caglianone recorded the first multi-homer game of his career. He started with a solo shot to left in the third inning off right-hander Darren Bowen, then added a three-run blast to the opposite field in the seventh. He also singled to cap off a three-hit, four-RBI day at Arvest Ballpark.
The slugging first baseman has now collected multiple hits in five of his last seven games, signaling he’s quickly adapting to Double-A pitching.
