Inside-the-park home runs are rare. But a walk-off inside-the-park home run? That’s even more uncommon.
There are about 20 inside-the-park homers every MLB season, but rarely does a team win a game on one. The last walk-off inside-the-park homer was by Cleveland’s Tyler Naquin in 2016 (one of three such homers that year, surprisingly).
Naquin’s clutch play came in a game that was tied 2–2 in the ninth. Twins prospect Alex Isola had an even more dramatic inside-the-parker on Sunday.
