Montoya Laces 3 HR Against Ogallala Wednesday, August 23rd , 2051 It was a good day for the Ellesmere Island Snowpeople and an exceptional one for Ángel Montoya. The 20-year-old center fielder sent three bombs out of the park to help the Snowpeople beat the Ogallala Octopi 10-5 at The Igloo. "When you're in the zone, the game really slows down," Montoya said when asked about his performance later. "I couldn't even tell you what pitches were thrown. Today feels great, but it is a long season and tomorrow is another day." For the day, he scored 5 times, drove in 4 runs and smacked 4 hits in 4 at-bats. Ángel Montoya hit a solo-shot off Alfonso Ramírez in the 1st, was hit by a pitch in the 3rd, singled in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Keneki Orana in the 6th and hit a two-run home run off Scott Jones in the 8th. In the current season, Montoya has put up a .329 batting average with 85 hits, 22 home runs, 46 RBI and scored 56 runs. |
