In what has been a very inconsistent season in 2018 for ASU baseball, one productive constant for the Sun Devils has been the day in and day out effectiveness of freshman slugger Spencer Torkelson.
Torkelson is not only far and away the team leader in home runs, the freshman leads Division-1 in long bombs with 20.
The freshman currently has two more home runs than California’s Andrew Vaughn who is second in the nation in home runs with 18.
The freshman’s success this year has been unprecedented in ASU history as it took Torkelson only 25 games to break Barry Bonds’ single-season freshman home run record.
