Dela Raps 3 HR Against Pioneers
Tuesday, May 18th, 2032
South Carolina Bombers catcher Jesús Dela sensed he was going to have a good day at the plate, but he still might have underestimated it a little.
Prior to the start of today's contest with the Vancouver Pioneers, Dela told teammates he was sure he would hit a home run. He did -- three times.
"During batting practice I really had my swing down pat," he recalled. "I felt some thunder in the lumber."
The big day from Dela pushed the Bombers past the Pioneers, 10-9. To go along with the homers, he collected 6 RBIs and scored 3 runs.
"I was seeing good, feeling good and swinging good," Dela told reporters after the game.
Jesús Dela struck out in the 1st, hit a GRAND SLAM off Alejandro García in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Alejandro García in the 5th and hit a solo-shot off Daryl Wyles in the 8th.
This year Dela is batting .235 with 7 home runs. He has scored 14 runs and driven in 19.
