College baseball team hits 5 consecutive home runs to tie NCAA record ...Middle East

College baseball history was made in a midweek matchup in Minneapolis in the middle of March, not exactly the place you would expect it to happen.

But Kansas pulled it off on Wednesday, tying the NCAA record by smacking 5 consecutive home runs against Minnesota at U.S. Bank Stadium, the home of the Minnesota Vikings. It was almost a touchdown’s worth of home runs in a football stadium for the visiting Jayhawks, who pulled something off that has never even been done in Major League Baseball.

Grad student Jackson Hauge did the honors in the third inning. He strode to the plate with the previous 4 batters having gone deep. Hauge had already homered an inning earlier, but this was his chance to make some college baseball history, and he met the moment with another bomb that, naturally, was a no-doubter to deep left-center field.

The Jayhawks had a chance to have the all-time record all to themselves, but they had to settle for 5 straight homers when the next batter, Tommy Barth, grounded out to shortstop.

Five consecutive home runs had been done 3 times before, according to the NCAA, with South Carolina pulling off the ridiculous feat in 2006, Eastern Illinois doing it in 1998 and Centenary LA accomplishing it first in 1992.

Four straight homers is the record at the major league level. It’s happened 11 times, most recently in 2022 by the St. Louis Cardinals.
