3 Boomers for Morley
Tuesday, July 11th , 2062
The old superstition that "bad news comes in threes" certainly came true for the Houston Sting.
Ottawa catcher Michael Morley tripled up on the home runs to propel the Civics to a win, 10-3, at Civics Field.
"We had our chances to win the game, but we just didn't come through," Houston manager Barnabé Bacm said. "Morley hit the heck out of the ball."
In addition to the homers, Morley collected 4 hits in 5 at-bats, 5 RBIs and scored 4 runs.
"Easy swings get you home runs," he said after the game. "I kept telling myself not to press. They have to be nice and easy swings."
Michael Morley hit a solo-shot off Norietsu Ito in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off Guy Story in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Guy Story in the 6th and grounded out in the 8th.
So far in 2062 Morley is batting .400 with 4 home runs, 7 RBIs and 8 runs scored. He has 8 hits in 20 at-bats and a .520 OBP.
