Cincinnati Reds pitcher Mike Leake hit his fifth career home run against the Atlanta Braves on Thursday night.
Leake’s power display is no surprise to anyone who watched him star at Arizona State from 2007-2009.
Leake played all over the diamond for the Sun Devils, but primarily manned center field or first base when he wasn’t on the mound.
He hit four homers in the Valley of the Sun, and hit over .300 in his sophomore and junior seasons.
