Unbelievable Power Surge: The Day MLB Exploded with Record-Breaking Home Runs
T-1. 3 –Albert Pujols, St. Louis Cardinals (2011 World Series Game 3 vs. Texas Rangers)
T-1. 3 –Adrian Beltre, Texas Rangers (2011 ALDS Game 4 vs. Tampa Bay Rays)
T-1. 3 –Adam Kennedy, Anaheim Angels (2002 ALCS Game 5 vs. Minnesota Twins)
In the ’02 regular season, Kennedy hit just seven homers in his 474 at-bats. But he showcased some power hitting in Game 5 of the ALCS, where the Angels held a 2-1 lead in the series. The Twins were up 2-0 by the top of the second inning. But spurred by Kennedy’s two-solo shots in the third and the fifth, the Angels chipped away at the lead. Besides his three-run jack in the seventh, they poured on seven more runs that inning – sealing the win and sending the Angels to the World Series for the first time in the team’s history.
