That power flashed big-time on Wednesday, when he crushed a 466-foot homer over the batter's eye off Pittsburgh Pirates starter Bailey Falter. The long ball, measured at 110.8 mph off the bat, put the Royals up 3-0. It was the fourth homer in 32 games of Caglianone's career.

It may be too early for Kansas City Royals outfielder Jac Caglianone to officially turn in his resignation from a prolonged slump. However, if the last two days are any indication, the rookie is starting to figure out how the complex Major League Baseball system operates.

Salvador Perez homered twice, Jac Caglianone hit the longest measured homer by a Royals rookie, and Kansas City beat the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-3 on Wednesday night to complete a three-game sweep. Perez broke a 3-3 tie in the eighth inning with his longball off Isaac Mattson (2-1).
