It's barely a surprise at this point when Aquino connects on a pitch and sends it into the seats. He's proving that his 28 Triple-A home runs were no joke.
He has 8 long balls already in the big leagues in just 12 games, as he's trying to replicate the hot start that Yordan Alvarez got off to with the Astros.
