Miguel Sano’s first career home run

Miguel Sano blasted his first career home run Tuesday night in his sixth career game.

Sano is off to a great start, hitting .450/.542/.700 since being called up, and if you want to start dreaming a little bit here are the Twins' all-time leaders in home runs:

Harmon Killebrew     475
Kent Hrbek           293
Justin Morneau       221
Tony Oliva           220
Bob Allison          211

I'm not sure where Sano will end up on that list, but he's going to hit a lot of home runs.

For a lot more about Sano's arrival and what it means for the Twins in the short and long term, check out this week's "Gleeman and The Geek" episode.

  1. Remember a few posts ago when commenters were complaining about Sano skipping AAA? Good times. Good times.

  2. I think there’s a real chance he could be on that list before being eligible for free agency.
