Jac Caglianone Unleashes Power with a Monumental Home Run

KANSAS CITY – Jac Caglianone is making waves in the Major Leagues, and his bat is already making noise. On Wednesday night, at Kauffman Stadium, the rookie hit an impressive 466-foot home run that left no doubt from the moment of impact. This hit was fundamental in the Royals’ 4-3 victory over the Pirates, securing the sweep in the series. The home run, which surpassed three walls in center field and bounced off the QuikTrip sign below the CrownVision, was Caglianone’s second in consecutive nights and the longest of his young career. According to statistics, it is the longest home run hit by a Royals rookie since measurements began in 2015. In addition, it ranks tenth among the longest in stadium history, just eight feet short of the record set by Brandon Moss in 2017. But Caglianone wasn’t the only one who shone on offense. Veteran and captain Salvador Pérez also had an outstanding performance, connecting two crucial home runs: one in the second inning to open the scoring and another in the eighth to break the 3-3 tie and secure Kansas City’s victory. In total, Pérez and Caglianone combined for 1,336 feet of pure power, demonstrating the type of production the Royals expected with the season underway. Caglianone, who had a slow start in the Majors, seems to be finding his offensive rhythm. His consecutive home runs have not only revitalized his confidence, but have also confirmed the potential that the Royals saw in him. With this performance, Kansas City finishes the sweep against Pittsburgh with strength and enthusiasm, making it clear that their offense can be as dangerous as it is spectacular.
