Have yourself a night, Nelson Cruz. The Orioles designated hitter belted a pair a home runs on Wednesday night in Toronto.

Here’s the first one. Top of the third, Orioles down 6-2, Cruz crushes a solo shot to the second deck in the Rogers Centre to cut the Blue Jays lead to three runs.

Then things got really fun. In the top of the fifth Cruz belted a grand slam to give the Orioles their first lead of the game, 7-6.

Whoa Nelly.

The Orioles slugger leads the team with six dingers on the young season. Chris Davis started the game with his second in the first inning.
