Bruce Pounds 3 HR Against Rails
Monday, June 19th , 2045
Marquette Miners bombardier Tom Bruce set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club took a 8-3 win over the Richland Rails today.
"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Bruce 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 Marquette right fielder had 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 5, and scored 3 runs.
Tom Bruce hit a two-run home run off Dylan Mugglestone in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Dylan Mugglestone in the 3rd, grounded out in the 5th and hit a solo-shot off Mike Lewis in the 8th.
Thus far this season Bruce is hitting .222 with 16 home runs, 27 RBIs and 23 runs scored. He has 28 hits in 126 at-bats and has played in 38 games.
