Yairo Munoz homered twice on Wednesday ... in the SAME inning

Yairo Munoz did something cool on Wednesday. Well, he did two cool things on Wednesday -- two home runs that is, and not just in the same game, but the same inning.

Then, when it was his turn again in the -- well, top of the 7th, he did this:

The Cards had an eight-run inning and no -- it's not Deja Vu -- it's Munoz hitting two bombs in the same (!) frame. He finished the game 3-for-4 with four RBIs and two runs.
