Jackson Blasts 3 into Bleachers Saturday, May 30th, 2026 At Doak Field Frank Jackson of the North Carolina State Wolfpack wreaked havoc on Illinois pitching, beating them 7-6 and leaving them in ruins after a prodigious three-home run performance. It was clear he was in a groove early on and as blast after blast cleared the fences. Fans knew they were witnessing a feat they wouldn't soon forget. After his monumental game Jackson told reporters at the press conference, "The last one was totally unexpected. I just wanted to make good contact, never thinking I would get a home run -- and BANG! -- I got #3." For the game the North Carolina State first baseman had 3 hits in 3 at-bats, drove in 6 and scored 3 runs. Frank Jackson hit a solo-shot off Artie Smith in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Artie Smith in the 3rd, walked in the 5th, walked in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Joe Smith in the 8th. This season Jackson is batting .404 with 78 hits, 30 home runs, 73 RBIs, .530 OBP and has scored 61 runs. |
