There are not too many people that can do what Jose Ramirez did on Thursday night. Only 312 other players in American League history have hit three home runs in a single game. Ramirez cracks that list at 313. 

Needless to say, the performance that he put on is one that will go down in Cleveland Guardians record books and one his teammates will remember for a long time.

Someone who was especially impressed and amazed by this performance was Terry Francona. After the game, he had this to say about the historic night:

"I still get happy for him because I know what he goes through to play every inning of every day and plays like it's his last. You don't see that many great players play like that. His enthusiasm for the game is every night and it's nice to see him have that success."

Tito talks highly of Jose Ramirez any chance he gets. He raves about his baseball IQ and what he can do on both sides of the field. Considering who Francona managed in the past, we can tell we're watching a future hall of fame in Ramirez. 

Tito certainly sees it.
