On June 1 1992 — At the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, , Devon White of the Toronto Blue Jays becomes just the sixth player in major league history to hit both a leadoff home run and an extra-inning homer in the same game. He also became the 56th switch-hitter in the majors to homer from both sides of the plate in the same game. Toronto defeats the Minnesota Twins, 5 – 3.

White’s 10th inning inside the park homerun bounced over the head of Future Hall of Famer Kirby Pucket which allowed White to easily scamper around the bases. It came with 1 out in the 10th off Carl Willis.
