Takahashi Whacks 3 out of the Park for Indiana Friday, August 21st, 2026 Every now and then, the right things happen at the right time. Yoshihide Takahashi discovered that when he smashed three homers at County Stadium during today's 8-6 win over the Birmingham Barons. The Indiana right fielder said in the postgame interview, "I got three balls to hit and nailed all three of them. The first was a hanging curve, the second was right down the middle and the last one was a good pitch, but I guessed right and put the wood to it." Takahashi finished the day with 3 hits in 3 at-bats and 3 RBIs. Yoshihide Takahashi hit a solo-shot off Jim Baker in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Domingo Ortíz in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Richard Simpson in the 9th.
