Boilermakers Kent Booms 3 HRs Saturday, April 24th, 2027 Whatever Joe Kent ate for breakfast before his game against the Maryland Terrapins today, it gave him some impressive power. The Purdue center fielder smacked three balls up and out of the park at Lambert Field. His home run barrage led the Boilermakers to take the 8-7 victory over the Terrapins. "When they throw it in your wheelhouse, you've got a shot at a homer," he told BNN reporters after the game. "I got three shots today and nailed them all." On his 3-homer day, he went 4-for-4, scored 3 times, drove in 4 and put on a display that history will remember. Joe Kent hit an RBI single in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Herb Shilling in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Pedro Gallegos in the 5th and hit a solo-shot off Albert Ellis in the 7th. For the season Kent has hit .315 with 5 home runs and 13 RBIs. He has played in 16 games and scored 9 times. |
