Jacobs Slams 3 Deep for South Mississippi Sunday, March 11th, 2018 Fans seated in the bleacher section at Ballpark of Celebration College were taking cover all day long as Todd Jacobs took aim, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power. Days like this are rare. After his amazing performance in South Mississippi's 12-4 triumph over the Texas Longhorns, the first baseman's name will soon be added into the record books. He told reporters at the postgame press conference, "I told myself not to press on the last one. I knew I couldn't force it... that it has to be a nice easy swing." For the game he collected 3 hits in 4 at-bats, batted in 5 and scored 3 runs. Todd Jacobs hit a solo-shot off Sam Moore in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Sam Moore in the 4th, grounded out in the 5th, walked in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Francisco Torres in the 8th. Jacobs is swinging at a .294 pace on the year with 4 home runs, 7 RBIs and 4 runs scored. He has played in 5 games. |
