In a game against the Chicago White Sox on August 8, Steven Kwan hit a home run shortly after White Sox broadcaster Steve Stone remarked on his lack of power-hitting ability. Stone suggested Kwan should not attempt to hit for power, referencing the outfielder's typically modest home run output. Kwan's home run was his second of the year and came during a strong offensive stretch, where he is hitting.398 since July 1. With Kwan's recent performance, the Cleveland Guardians are looking to secure wins in their ongoing seven-game road trip. The Guardians face both the White Sox and the Detroit Tigers in critical upcoming matchups.
