Welcome to The Show, Jac Caglianone.
After a frustrating 0-for-5 MLB Debut on Tuesday that featured multiple Cardinals’ web gems to keep him off the stat sheet, Caglianone couldn’t be held at bay any longer. In the second at-bat of his second game, Caglianone finally broke the seal, recording an RBI double to give the Royals an early 2-0 lead over the St. Louis Cardinals at Busch Stadium.
Here’s video of the moment:

— Pete Grathoff (@pgrathoff) June 5, 2025According to StatCast, that ball was struck at 91.4 miles per hour. Caglianone has had no issues with making hard contact so far in his MLB career. When combined with a 95 mile-per-hour flyout in the first inning on Thursday, this is already the 6th batted ball for Caglianone that has registered at least 90 miles per hour.
He did so 4 times in Tuesday’s game despite the 0-for-5 effort, including the 2 hardest-hit balls for any player in that game (both over 112 miles per hour).
Caglianone has been a quick riser through the Royals’ system since they took him with the No. 6 overall pick out of Florida in the 2024 MLB Draft. He tore up the minor leagues this season and now Kansas City is hoping he can provide a spark for what has been one of the worst offenses in the league to this point in the year.
The Royals and Cardinals are playing a double-header on Thursday, so Caglianone will have plenty of more chances to cause additional damage on this special day.
