SALT LAKE CITY – Outfielder Jo Adell broke the Salt Lake Bees‘ franchise record for the most consecutive games with a home run.
The Albuquerque Isotopes hosted the Bees for the final contest of a six-game series on Sunday, April 9.
During the top of the sixth inning, the Los Angeles Angels prospect sailed a pitch out of left field. Adell’s homer tied the game at 8-8.
After tying the Bees’ record of five straight games with a home run a day earlier on his birthday, Adell set a new club mark against Albuquerque.
