The receiver of the Giants Bailey makes the story with the Home Run at the end of the game, inside the park

San Francisco – The entry of Patrick Bailey in the records of Major League Baseball on Tuesday evening began with a tight swing which sent a quick ball of the Lift of the Phillies Jordan Romano in Triple Alley.

It ended with Bailey making his way around the third goal, then being assaulted to marble by his teammates after having become the third receiver in the history of the major league to strike a End of the game, Home Run inside the park.

The three -point shot had an output speed of 103.4 MPH and rebounded on the brick wall of the Giant Water Stadium. He turned to the central field while Nick Castellanos and Brandon Marsh continued.

Bailey said his initial thought was to get a triple before seeing the coach of the third base Matt Williams giving him.

“The ball, I just knew I have it,” said Bailey. “I saw that it was towards Triple Alley and I said to myself:” Oh I have to go. I have to at least arrive at the third. Once I saw the rebound, I was like “very well, do not fall”. “”

This is the ninth time this season that the Giants have won during their last At-Bat, at the top of the majors.

It was also the first time in almost nine years that a player has hit a circuit inside the park in the majors. Tyler Naquin de Cleveland was the last to do on August 19, 2016.

The three -point home run raised the giants to a 4-3 victory It made the crowd of Oracle Park roar while Bailey crossed the plate.

“He has obtained big success this year,” said Giants manager Bob Melvin. “In major situations, he has passed. Not as much as he wishes. I hope it is something that catapults him. I have not seen him drive a ball like that for a while.”

Bailey did not remember if he had already struck a home run inside the park at any level. And as kind as it is, Bailey said he would have preferred to hit an ordinary home run.

“Tasted,” said Bailey when he was asked how he felt. “I wanted him to go beyond the fence.”
