Ruben Estrada Rockets 3 Home Runs
Sunday, June 11th, 2034
Some days you can't have it all, as San Francisco Earthquakes third baseman Ruben Estrada discovered when he cracked three homers against the Bloomington Blazers today, and still lost.
"I have mixed emotions about this game," he said. "It's great to hit three homers, but it's hard to be happy when you lose the game."
The 30-year-old got his name in the league record books, but the Blazers walked away with the 8-3 triumph at Arson Arena. Estrada finished the day with 3 hits in 3 at-bats and 3 RBIs.
"I got three balls to hit and nailed all three of them," he said in the postgame interview.
Ruben Estrada hit a solo-shot off Landy Lu in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Landy Lu in the 4th, walked in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Tony Gutierrez in the 8th.
This year Estrada has hit at a .255 clip with 50 hits, 16 home runs, 30 RBIs and 28 runs scored.
