Ortíz Rockets 3 HR Against Barton Springs
Sunday, August 20th , 2045
Toledo Saboteurs bombardier Manuel Ortíz set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club took a 7-3 win over the Barton Springs Blues today.
"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Ortíz told writers in the postgame press room. "I was ahead in the count, so I gambled that I'd get a certain pitch, and got all of it."
For the game, the Toledo catcher had 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 6, and scored 3 runs.
Manuel Ortíz hit a solo-shot off Chun-mei Bao in the 1st, walked in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Chun-mei Bao in the 6th, hit a GRAND SLAM off Harley Hawk in the 7th and flied out in the 9th.
This year Ortíz has hit at a .288 pace and produced 55 RBIs, 19 home runs and scored 43 runs.
