3 Boomers for Frank
Monday, May 17th, 2027
Shawn Frank of the Gamecocks brutalized Missouri pitching, parking three home runs into the bleachers in today's 19-5 victory. The South Carolina right fielder 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 4 with 6 RBIs and 3 runs scored.
"Too much Shawn Frank today," Tigers manager said. "That's simply what the game boils down to." "Phenomenal!" said one impressed spectator. That one word says it all.
Shawn Frank hit a two-run home run off Glenn Roberts in the 1st, struck out in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Vicente Ramos in the 4th, walked in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Mark McCoy in the 6th and walked in the 8th.
So far this season Frank is batting .284 with 9 home runs.
