VIDEO: Brewers launch back-to-back-to-back homers vs. Tigers
The Milwaukee Brewers may be the basement dwellers in the National League Central, but they still boast one of the more powerful lineups in baseball.
Ryan Braun, Adam Lind and Aramis Ramirez launched back-to-back-to-back home runs as part of a six-run third inning on Tuesday versus Detroit Tigers starter Anibal Sanchez.
The homer barrage was started by Braun, who belted a three-run shot off the foul pole in right field.

Ramirez's solo blast moved him past Greg Nettles and into fifth place among third baseman all-time with his 369th homer at the position.
It's the first time Sanchez has surrendered three long balls in the same inning.
The Brewers are also the first visiting team ever to hit three straight homers at Comerica Park.
