Former LSU shortstop Kramer Robertson hit two home runs in his fifth professional game Wednesday night to help lift his Peoria Chiefs team past the Lake County Captains 10-3.

It was Robertson's home debut at Dozer Park where Single A Affiliate of the St. Louis Cardinals play and he did not disappoint the home crowd. Per MILB.com:

quote:
Robertson homered for the first time in his professional career in the third inning and added a second home run in the seventh… It was the fourth multi-homer game for a Chiefs player this year, the first since O'Keefe did it on July 2… Tonight was his Dozer Park debut after his first four games came on the road… Robertson extended his hit streak to four games after going hitless in his professional debut… It was his second multi-hit performance in the last four games… It was Robertson's first and the Chiefs fifth four-hit game this season.

Good work, young man.

Looks like he cut his hair, I think that was the key.

I love it! This kid is a winner and will work harder than anyone to make it! I never understood why he got so much flack from fans while at LSU. I think he's a helluva player and will make it to the show soon. Good luck KRob!

kciDAtaE•81 months

The reason why fans hated on him is bc he was a douche. That being said, he admitted he responds well to negative criticism on social media. So we are just encouraging that little douche

GeologyGrad88•81 months

Help me understand why so many think KRob is a douche. Granted I don't live in BR and I don't see the day to day stuff , but the interviews I have seen he does not come across that way. Yeah, he went cold in the CWS, but that happens in baseball. He came back for his Sr. season and gave us a shot to win it and I wish him nothing but the best!

Plot twist: He's in handcuffs.

I am equally excited that he fixed his hair.

He looks like a homeless person in that picture. It is amazing how good purple and gold improves your looks.

Too bad he tanked in the CWS....

Slumps will happen. Deichman was in one right along with him.

Baseball can be cruel and baseball can be kind. I like to see former Tigers do well. Hopefully he will make it to the majors. Also glad he cut and recolored his hair.

Blob Fish•81 months

NOW he decides to hit

Lexman1•81 months

Don't let him get hot against single A pitching.

CaliTigerHB•81 months

Where was this a couple weeks ago???

ShlikStyck•81 months

Gators love this guy.

Lexman1•81 months

Thanks Geologygrad88. Exactly my point. A lot of players struggled in Omaha over the years. Remember Raph Rhymes? Best hitter in the nation! Couldn't bye one in Omaha! Does that make him a douche, too? Of course not. Good pitching beats good hitting and wins more often than not.

GeologyGrad88•81 months

Absolutely!! I forgot about Raph's struggles in Omaha. I now live in NW Arkansas, so hopefully I can watch KRob as he progresses. The Cardinals double A team is in Springfield, MO and they are in the same division as the Royals double A, NW Arkansas Naturals, which is in Springdale, AR.

TampaTiger22•81 months

Yes, you are correct. He had a bad ws, it happens. Best of luck to him
