5-for-5 Day for Deleón Sunday, October 6th, 2024 It was a big day with the bat for Javier Deleón of the Santa Monica Bruins at The Star Zone as he bashed out hit after hit after hit to defeat Mexico City 21-5. After the game he said, "Guys, it's just one game in a long season. I hit it hard and found some holes today. 5 hits in 5 tries. But my hits are not the big thing in the game. The victory is the important thing. That's the story." At the end of the game Deleón had collected 5 hits in 5 at-bats and a small mention in the record book. He was happy. He had a big day with the bat. And the Bruins had won. Javier Deleón tripled in the 1st, singled in the 4th, doubled in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Troy Hawkins in the 7th, walked in the 8th and singled in the 9th. Deleón is swinging at a .278 pace on the year with 12 home runs, 47 RBIs and 42 runs scored. He has played in 67 games. |
