White Sox outfielder slows it down to sock pair of home runs

On Friday, Luis Robert hit a pair of unique home runs against the Pittsburgh Pirates. 

While a two-home run performance is impressive on its own, ESPN's Sarah Langs revealed another fascinating statistical wrinkle. 

Roberts hit homers off pitches of 68.7 and 70.1 MPH on Friday. According to Langs, Robert joins Kurth Suzuki (2010) and Johnny Damon (2008) as the only players to hit two home runs off pitches 70 MPH or slower in a single game since pitch-tracking began back in 2008. 

Suzuki and Damon's performances came against the same pitcher, notorious knuckleballer Tim Wakefield. 

For his part, Robert cracked both homers against Pirates starter Rich Hill, the second of which knocked the veteran out of the game. 

Robert got to Hill for the first time in the top of the third, smashing a two-run shot 413 feet into the centerfield bleachers after putting a smooth swing on an 0-1 sweeper.
