Loperfido Racks Up Extra Bags

Astros prospect Joey Loperfido found himself all over the basepaths on Wednesday in a nighttime tilt against the Mets. The Duke alum turned a 96 mph fastball from Dedniel Nuñez into a double into the left-center field gap and added a triple off a Jake Diekman sweeper as well. The three-bagger landed just shy of the warning track in the right-center field alleyway. For the Grapefruit League, Loperfido is 8-for-21 with three doubles and a triple.
