Game 46 @ Lions: Sato is King of the Jungle

Game 46 @ Lions: Sato is King of the Jungle
May 28, 2021

Games like these leave an indelible mark on fans and could be talked about at season’s end if all continues to go well for these Hanshin Tigers. Teruaki Sato hit his first home run in what felt like ages, and for a follow-up act, he hit two more, including a ninth-inning, go-ahead, rip-the-heart-out-of-the-Lions three-run monster shot to deep, deep right. Just look at this scoreboard. Pitching on both teams got lost in the thick of the jungles of Met Life Dome. The bats came out swinging for both sides. But one man rules over them all, and if you were not a fan of his before this game, you are now.

Watch it again.
