How Triston Casas’s homer on Friday reminded Alex Cora of homers Barry Bonds used to hit

Triston Casas played a major role in a Red Sox win again on Friday.

The first baseman drove in a run on a double in the second inning to give the Red Sox the lead at the time. His big moment though came in the fifth. On the pitch after he fouled one off his leg and sat on the ground for a moment, Casas took Giants ace Logan Webb’s 92 mph sinker 435 feet to left-center for a solo shot, giving the Red Sox a 2-0 lead before winning 3-2.

Hitting deep home runs to center field hasn’t been uncommon for Casas lately.
