WATCH: Yasiel Puig Homers Twice, Kiké Hernandez Steals Home

Yasiel Puig continues to flourish at the start of the 2017 season. After a home run on Wednesday night, he hit two more on Thursday afternoon.

Yasiel hit a ball deep into the back of the Dodgers bullpen, and then he did it AGAIN!



Puig’s first home run was his second of the season, and boy did it go far.

Puig’s second home run of the game was his third of the season. It went slightly less far but it was a laser over the left field wall.

 

Yasiel Puig added four RBIs over his two home runs and finished the day 2-for-3 as he walked in two of his other plate appearances. Power and patience will be the two keys to success for Puig in 2017.

Kiké Hernandez added to the day’s highlights when he pulled off a delayed steal of home. Corey Seager ran on a pitch and stopped between first and second, giving Hernandez an opportunity to steal home.

Hernandez slipped under the tag and was called safe. The call was confirmed by replay after a Padres challenge.

Brandon McCarthy’s resurgence is underway
