Young Bombs 3 HR Against Ft. Worth Saturday, August 10th, 2024 Gregg Young was in a home run mode today at The Cattle Pen. The Buckhead first baseman massacred Cattlemen pitching, cracking out three home runs and going 3-for-5 with 4 RBIs and scoring 3 runs. But this sensational performance didn't really matter. Ft. Worth won the ballgame 10-9 despite the three homers. "I wish a big 'W' had come with this," he said. "It's great to hit three homers, but the bottom line is whether you win or lose." Nonetheless, Young will now have a place in the league record book. "I guess when you're hot, you're hot," he said. "I'm not going up there trying to hit home runs. I put the good part of the bat on it and luckily three of them went out today." Gregg Young grounded out in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Don Miller in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Juan Sánchez in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Arinori Shibata in the 10th. This year Young is batting .261 with 73 hits and 13 home runs. He has scored 34 times and has batted in 46 runs. |
