Rays third baseman Junior Caminero hit two home runs against the Guardians on Monday night.
Caminero was originally signed by Cleveland in 2019 but was traded to the Rays for Tobias Myers in 2021 (who unfortunately was also put on waivers before having some success with the Brewers in recent years).
Caminero is the first player with a multi-homer game against Cleveland who was originally signed or drafted by Cleveland but never played for Cleveland since Marco Scutaro in 2009
Scutaro was originally signed by Cleveland out of Venezuela in 1994 and traded to Milwaukee as part of the Bob Wickman deal in 2000.
As a member of the Blue Jays in 2009, Scutaro hit two homers, one of Carl Pavano and another off Jose Veras.
