Back-to-back-to-back jacks are en vogue again, apparently.
On Sunday afternoon, barely 24 hours after the Chicago White Sox took R.A. Dickey deep in three straight at-bats, the Minnesota Twins did the same to New York Yankees right-hander Nathan Eovaldi, with Brian Dozier, Trevor Plouffe, and rookie Max Kepler smacking successive bombs in the fifth inning in the Bronx.
Eovaldi, now in his second season with the Yankees, has served up 17 homers already this year, surpassing his previous career-high - 14, in 2014 - with another three weeks to go until the All-Star break.
