Yordan Álvarez, the Cuban sensation, remains in top form during the recent matchdays of Major League Baseball (MLB). On Sunday, he had a memorable performance by smashing two home runs, allowing him to reach the milestone of 30 home runs for the fourth consecutive season.
The star player for the Houston Astros also achieved his 21st multi-homer game, making him the second player in MLB history to need the fewest games (610) to reach that mark, according to journalist Francys Romero on Facebook.
The home runs came during the game against the Kansas City Royals in the fourth and sixth innings, improving his offensive line to .314/.400/.571, with 150 hits, including 61 extra-base hits, as reported by ESPN statistics.
Additionally, the player from Las Tunas matched the legendary Jeff Bagwell as the only Astros to achieve three dozen home runs in four consecutive seasons. Without a doubt, the Cuban is in the running for the Silver Slugger Award, which highlights the best hitters of the season.
