Four-bagger Feast: Duarte Slugs 3 for Chicago
Tuesday, August 2nd, 2033
Máximo Duarte went yard three times in a Chicago Titans victory over the Bronx Bombers at The War Dome today.
"I was in a groove," he said. "Every pitch they tossed up there looked like a grapefruit."
For the day, the Chicago left fielder went 3-for-4 against Bronx with 5 RBIs and 3 runs scored in a brilliant display of power hitting that led the Titans to the 7-4 win.
"I tell you what. I'm shocked because I didn't think that last ball had enough to get out," he told BNN reporters in the clubhouse following the game. "I thought it was just going to be a long out."
Máximo Duarte hit a solo-shot off Trey Robinson in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Trey Robinson in the 3rd, flied out in the 5th, walked in the 8th and hit a three-run home run off Javier Franco in the 9th.
Duarte is currently hitting at a .273 pace with 12 home runs, 39 RBIs and has scored 38 times.
