Caglianone Powers Royals to Historic Texas Sweep

News summary

Kansas City Royals rookie Jac Caglianone hit his first two MLB home runs in a 4-1 victory over the Texas Rangers, helping the Royals secure their first three-game sweep in Texas since 2003. Caglianone's first homer traveled 387 feet off a high fastball from Jacob Latz, followed by a 439-foot blast in the ninth inning, making him only the fourth Royal to hit his first two career homers in the same game. Michael Wacha contributed with six strong innings, allowing just two hits and one run, and Vinnie Pasquantino also homered for the Royals. Caglianone, previously struggling at the plate, expressed relief and excitement at reaching this milestone, which was celebrated by his teammates with the traditional rookie silent treatment. The sweep represents a turning point for the Royals after a challenging June, raising hopes for greater offensive consistency as their road trip continues. Caglianone's power display echoes his record-setting college career and signals his potential impact for Kansas City going forward.
