Trujillo Blasts 3 into Bleachers Monday, September 14th , 2054 The "hardest feat in sports" debate is a never-ending one with no correct answer, but hitting three home runs is certainly in the conversation. That's exactly what Rafael Trujillo did today at The Strip, going deep three times and carrying his team to victory, 5-4. "It all came together. I was seeing the ball well and I got some good pitches to hit," Trujillo said. "Good things happen, when that happens." The Las Vegas Flamingos right fielder blistered the Northern Virginia Rainbow Mermaids for 3 hits, batted in 4 runs and scored 3 times. "It ain't like we weren't trying," Northern Virginia manager David Lister said. "He was hot and really torched my boys today." Rafael Trujillo hit a two-run home run off Jared Carlisle in the 1st, walked in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Jesús Rosas in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Jesús Rosas in the 7th, flied out in the 9th, walked in the 12th, walked in the 15th and grounded out in the 17th. Trujillo on the season is hitting .248 with 8 home runs. His stats include 17 RBIs and 15 runs scored. |
