Justin Crawford Hits Third Double-A Homer

Justin Crawford is known for his contact hitting, speed and defense, but there’s perhaps more power than many realize. Crawford hit his ninth home run of the season on Wednesday and his third since being promoted to Double-A. Crawford went 2-for-4 on Wednesday driving in three runs as Reading defeated Harrisburg 3-0. Over 37 games at Double-A, Crawford is hitting .333/.380/.458 with 13 extra-base hits and 15 stolen bases.
