Peralta hits rare inside-the-park HR
CLEVELAND (AP) — Jhonny Peralta got a rare inside-the-park home run for the Cleveland Indians when Detroit Tigers center fielder Ryan Raburn crashed through a bullpen door trying to make a catch.
With runners on first and second and two outs in the first inning Sunday, Peralta hit a 1-1 pitch from Andy Oliver towards the Cleveland bullpen. Raburn leaped into, and tumbled through the door. The ball caromed off the wall and left fielder Brennan Boesch raced over to retrieve it as Peralta, one of the slowest players on Cleveland’s roster, chugged around the bases.
