Cron went 1-for-2 with a two-run homer, a walk and another run scored after entering as a pinch hitter Saturday in the Rays' 19-6 win over the Twins.
Cron wasn't in the starting lineup but did plenty of damage upon entering the contest. He took a Matt Belisle curveball over the center-field fence in the eighth inning as Tampa Bay piled on during a 15-run stampede across the final three innings. The first baseman has enjoyed a breakthrough 2018 so far, slashing .254/.326/.480 with 19 homers and 49 RBI in 371 first-half plate appearances.
