The former Boston Red Sox prospect is tearing up Triple-A for the Los Angeles Dodgers. He was already on fire before launching three solo home runs and a single against the Las Vegas Aviators on Saturday. Incredibly, his Oklahoma City Comets still lost, 8-5, falling to 4-4 in Pacific Coast League play despite Tibbs' torrid start .
That makes seven homers in eight games for Tibbs, who's slashing an absurd . 514/. 564/1.
