Austin Meadows Homers in Third Straight Game
5 years agoTampa Bay Rays off-season acquisition Austin Meadows homered in this third straight game on Saturday night, hitting a full-count fastball 359 feet to right field, tying the game against the Marlin 6 - 6 in the seventh inning. After Meadows hit his 18th home run of the year, the Rays would go on to win the game 8 - 6 and have now won seven of their last eight. Even with the homer streak, keep an eye on Tampa's lineup card on Sunday as they are facing a tough leftie in Caleb Smith and may elect to give the left-handed Meadows a day off.
