Kerry Carpenter of the Detroit Tigers achieved a remarkable feat by hitting three home runs in a single game against the Chicago White Sox, leading his team to a resounding 13-1 victory. This performance marked the first time a Tiger had accomplished this since 2016. Carpenter demonstrated great confidence and precision in his swing, hitting home runs in his second, third, and fourth at-bats. His achievements highlight an exceptional night for the Tigers, who collectively hit five home runs. Manager AJ Hinch praised Carpenter's ability to connect with good pitches, emphasizing the significance of such performances.
Carpenter is the third Tigers player in the past 20 seasons with three home runs and five RBIs in a game, joining Miguel Cabrera (2013) and J.D. Martinez (2015).
Those are special nights. I don't know how often anyone ever sees it, but when he gets good pitches to hit, he's as dangerous as anybody. It was nice to see him connect.
