Clippers sail behind Bradley's two homers

Bobby Bradley is trying to ensure that his whirlwind July ends on a positive note.
Cleveland's No. 6 prospect belted a pair of solo homers in Triple-A Columbus' 10-6 win over Indianapolis on Monday at Victory Field.

After Brandon Barnes went yard for the Clippers off Indians right-hander Eduardo Vera, Bradley crushed an 0-1 pitch over the wall in center field. In the fourth agianst Vera, the first baseman homered to right on an 0-2 offering. Bradley has 27 homers, third in the International League behind Gwinnett's Adam Duvall and Louisville's Aristides Aquino.
It marked the sixth two-homer game of the season for the 23-year-old, but his first since returning to Columbus after a month in the Majors. In a seven-day span between June 14 and June 20, Bradley amassed three multi-homer efforts. On June 23, he was moved up to Cleveland.
