Mark Teixeira set a big league record Tuesday evening when he went yard from both sides of the plate in his team's rainy 6-0 win over the Chicago White Sox.
The All-Star first baseman hit a two-run shot batting right-handed off John Danks in the third inning before adding his second longball of the night batting left-handed against Jason Frasor in the seventh. Well done.
This marks the second time this season he's homered from both sides in the same game -- the other coming on June 15 against the Texas Rangers -- and the 12th occasion in his career, breaking the tie with Eddie Murray and Chili Davis.
Tex is now batting .256 with 31 homers and 82 RBI on the season, which is pretty darn good.
