Unbelievable Power Surge: The Day MLB Exploded with Record-Breaking Home Runs
T-1. 3 –Jose Altuve, Houston Astros (2017 ALDS Game 1 vs. Boston Red Sox)
T-1. 3 –Pablo Sandoval, San Francisco Giants (2012 World Series Game 1 vs. Detroit Tigers)
After mounting comebacks in the NLDS and NLCS, the Giants were in a grove as they entered the 2012 World Series – and took home Game 1 with help from Sandoval’s three homers. Facing former Cy Young winner Justin Verlander, he hit a solo shot in the first inning and a two-out, two-run dinger in the fifth. Verlander was pulled after four innings, and Sandoval went yard for the third time in the fifth. The Giants swept the Tigers, winning their second title in three years.
