WATCH: Yale Catcher Jake Gehri’s Stunning Display at Plate, as He Smashes Four Home Runs

The 2022 season of Major League Baseball is yet to start. But currently, baseball fans do have a substitute for MLB, as the college-level baseball games are bringing almost the same level of entertainment. And the recent batting display by Jake Gehri is proof of that.

This Sunday was an extraordinary day for Yale’s baseball catcher, Jake Gehri. The senior college baseball catcher had a day to remember on the field. In a college-level baseball match, the Bulldogs catcher smashed not one, not 2, but four home runs against Princeton.

With this stunning display at the plate, Jake Gehri has set a new record in the Ivy League.

Jake Geri impresses the baseball world with four homers in a single game

Smashing four homers in a single game is far from easy, even if it’s in a college-level game. However, Jake Gehri did it with ease and finesse. His four stunning home runs helped the Bulldogs to win over Princeton by a huge margin of 13-6.

Out of Gehri’s four home runs, two were grand slams. And the Bulldogs’ catcher single-handedly scored more runs than the entire Princeton squad. With two grand slams, a two-run homer, and a solo homer, Gehri scored a total of 11 runs against Princeton.

Even Yale’s head coach, John Stuper, was in awe of the performance of the Bulldogs’ catcher. According to CBS Sports, Stuper said that he had no words to describe Gehri’s hitting. Yale’s head expressed how incredibly proud he was of Gehri.

“Hard to come up with words to describe Jake Gehri’s performance,” said John Stuper. “It’s no secret he’s been struggling a bit at the plate. But I’m incredibly proud of the way he has not let his offensive struggles affect his catching… But he had a historic day at the plate today. Wow.”  

With that performance, Jake Gehri has broken various records in a college-level game. Surely, many MLB sides will now have marked him as a key player. And after the 2022 season, it might be possible that Geri will get to play in Major League Baseball.
