Ellis Burks becomes only the second Red Sox player to hit two home runs in the same inning

Ellis Burks becomes only the second Red Sox player to hit two home runs in the same inning when he goes deep twice in Boston’s eight-run fourth frame during the team’s 12-4 rout of the Tribe at Cleveland Stadium. In 1928, second baseman Bill Regan became the first BoSox player to accomplish the feat when he homered twice, including an inside-the-park round-tripper, in the top of the fourth inning against Chicago at Comiskey Park.
