This is a bigger crowd than the High-A club typically sees, but there was a good reason for it.officially started his road back to the big league club after suffering a hamstring strain on May 4. This appearance with the Captains is a part of the rehab assignment he’s currently on.
Kwan showed a little more pop in his second at-bat as he lined out to left field. However, his third time to the plate is really where he left his mark on the game. He smoked a three-run homer in the bottom of the fifth inning to give the Captains a 4-3 lead at the time. Seeing Kwan make contact such as this will make all Guardians fans excited for his eventual return.He did get some action in the field recording a put-out chasing down a few balls hit in the gap.
