Stepping up in a crucial 6th-inning turn at the plate, the Dominican power hitter crushed a pitch deep into the stands to extend Chunichi’s offense, finishing the day with three RBIs. Sanó went 1-for-4 with a homer, three RBIs, a run scored, and two strikeouts, keeping his season batting average at .220.
