Jackson on Fire: Burns Watford City with 3 HR
Monday, July 17th , 2056
At Trash Panda Field today, Artie Jackson hit homer after homer after homer. But they didn't add up to enough to beat the Watford City Trash Pandas as the Beaumont Crossbeaus went down to defeat, 8-7.
"It was a good game for me, not so good for our team," the Beaumont third baseman said. "I got lucky. I made some good swings on some pitches. We just didn't put up one in the win column."
On his monumental day, he had 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 4 runs, and scored 4 times.
"The third one was totally unexpected," Jackson told reporters after his extraordinary game. "I just wanted to make good contact, never thinking I would get another home run and bang, I got number three."
Artie Jackson hit a solo-shot off César Villarreal in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off César Villarreal in the 4th, walked in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Enrique Martínez in the 7th and flied out in the 9th.
For the year Jackson is hitting .175 with 5 home runs. His stats include 16 RBI and 18 runs scored.
