Vasquez Goes Deep 3 Times Wednesday, July 26th , 2062 Today was a special one for Tony Vasquez of the Silicon Valley Hackers as he slammed three home runs in the 5-4 Hackers win over the Louisiana Crocodiles. "Lately, I've been uppercutting the ball too much," he said to sportswriters after the game. "I would hit it hard, but they just went sky high and stayed in the ballpark. No big long outs for me in this game. I leveled out my swing and connected on the sweet spot. I knew they were gone the minute I hit 'em." The Silicon Valley right fielder collected 3 hits in 6 at-bats, drove in 4, and scored 3 runs in the contest at The Swamp. Tony Vasquez hit a two-run home run off Mario Gonzales in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Mario Gonzales in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th, was hit by a pitch in the 7th, flied out in the 9th, struck out in the 11th and hit a solo-shot off Edgar Melendez in the 14th. Posting a .279 batting average to date, Vasquez has 5 home runs and 13 RBIs. |
