Angels’ first baseman C.J. Cron only had ten home runs this season heading into Tuesday night’s game, but after a monstrous performance, he managed to become the newest Suns SixthMan member.
Cron’s teammate Mike Trout challenged him to hit two home runs against the Oakland Athletics. The prize for the bet? Phoenix Suns season tickets.
Cron attended Mountain Pointe High School in Arizona and grew up a huge Suns fan. So this wasn’t a challenge he was going to let slip away.
With a three-run shot in the first inning, Cron already had one of two home runs with eight more innings left to play.
