Aaron Hicks Ties Mickey Mantle’s Elusive Feat
7 years agoOn April 13th against the Detroit Tigers earlier this season, New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks connected on an inside-the-park home run. On Saturday night, once again on the road, this time against the Kansas City Royals, the 28-year-old pulled off the same feat. With his club up a run in the third inning, Hicks drilled another inside-the-park home run, belting one deep to right field that went off the top of the wall, allowing him to use his speed to come all the way home. With his second inside-the-park home run of the season, he became the first Yankee to do so since Mickey Mantle did it in 1958.
