The post Royals slugger Vinnie Pasquantino keeps home run streak alive with blast vs. Tigers appeared first on ClutchPoints.

Pasquantino, who has been red-hot at the plate, delivered a three-run home run in the top of the first inning against Texas Rangers opener Caleb Boushley. But the Kansas City bats went cold from there, and disaster struck in the top of the ninth inning.

Kansas City Royals first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino exited Saturday’s game against the Chicago White Sox with a heat-related illness. In the first inning, Pasquantino was checked out by Royals manager Matt Quatraro and the training staff during his first at-bat. He appeared to feel discomfort while at the plate against White Sox starter Sean Burke.
