Orioles' Alex Jackson Hits 'Happy Gilmore'-esque Home Run
Baltimore Orioles backup catcher Alex Jackson hit his third home run of the season, a 401-foot solo shot in the eighth inning against Colorado Rockies position player Kyle Farmer. His two-step approach to the plate was compared to the 'Happy Gilmore' golf swing. Jackson, acquired by the Orioles earlier this month from the Yankees, is slashing .273/.273/.727 through 11 games.
