What an unbelieavable feat was accomplished recently by longtime minor league outfielder Cristian Guerrero, who homered on five consecutive at-bats for the Gary (IN) RailCats in a Northern League doubleheader.
Guerrero, the first cousin of major leaguers Vladimer and Wilton Guerrero, homered in his last two trips to the plate in Game 1 of a doubleheader, then came back with round-trippers in his first three at-bats in the nightcap.
Guerrero, 29, is in his third season at Gary. He spent a good portion of 2007 at Camden where he homered seven times in 145 at-bats. The 6-foot-5 native of the Dominican Republic hit .290 with 23 RBI in 43 games for the Riversharks.
The right-handed hitter entered this season with 125 career homers, only one of which had come above the Class AA level.
