Rhys Hoskins became the fastest player in MLB history to 18 homers with his two-run shot in the second inning Thursday, two of the Phillies' 10 runs in a 10-0 rout of the Marlins.
Hoskins didn't just break the record, he demolished it -- the previous record for fastest to 18 homers was 44 games, a full 10 more than it took the 24-year-old. This one was also special because it was the first time he'd gone to the opposite field, showing the kind of prodigious power he exhibited in the minors as well. He's got six homers in his last six games and is slashing .314/.442/.805 in his 34 games this year. What will he do for an encore?
Roids + Juiced Balls + Pitchers haven't figured out how to pitch to him
