Jo Adell's Spectacular Night

Not one, not two, but three!
By John Amato — April 5, 2026

I've watched a lot of baseball in my lifetime - seen a lot of great defensive games and plays, but I have never seen an outfielder rob three home runs within a span of two winnings in one game.

This happened during a 1-0 game. I think his best catch was the final one in the ninth-inning.

Whether you like the game or not, Adell was remarkable.

We've been tracking HR robberies since 2004.

Jo Adell is the first player with 3 HR robberies in a game in that time!
