Lewis Rockets 3 HR Against Auburn Monday, April 17th, 2023 Matt Lewis of the Cowboys brutalized Auburn pitching, parking three home runs into the bleachers in today's 17-2 victory. The Oklahoma State first baseman was red-hot, the ball just exploded off his bat all day long. "I don't try to hit homers," he said. "I try to go out there and have good at-bats. If I put a good swing on the ball, then it is going to go out of the park. I didn't try to hit the first one or the second one or the third one. I just try to have good at-bats." For the game he went 3 for 3 with 10 RBIs and 3 runs scored. "Too much Matt Lewis today," Tigers manager said. "That's simply what the game boils down to." "Phenomenal!" said one impressed spectator. That one word says it all. Matt Lewis hit a two-run home run off Ken Flowers in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Ken Flowers in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off John Morton in the 3rd, walked in the 5th, walked in a run in the 6th and walked in a run in the 7th. So far this season Lewis has put up a .385 batting average with 20 hits, 4 home runs and 15 RBIs. |
