On Aug. 29, A.J. Reed took a quick peek at the home run leaderboard after going deep twice to take a share of the Minor League lead. He wound up with sole possession of the top spot the next day.

As it turns out, that last long ball was enough to give him a second Minor League home run crown, but the 24-year-old figured he'd add another tater for good measure on the last day of the regular season.

Reed tied a career high with his 34th homer and drove in four runs as Triple-A Fresno defeated Salt Lake, 9-7, on Monday at Smith's Ballpark. The slugger fell a triple shy of the cycle, adding an RBI double and a run-scoring groundout before igniting a four-run rally with a two-out single in the seventh.

Can't believe AJR is not a big star in the mlb yet...thought he was a sure thing.
 
I think Reeds problem is that he's got a lot of talent ahead of him
