Hill Hits 3 Homers Against Denison Monday, June 25th , 2063 Russ Hill was in a home run mode at Denison Park. The Aurora catcher massacred Monarchs pitching, cracking out three home runs and going 4-for-6 with 3 RBIs and scoring 4 runs. But this sensational performance didn't really matter. Denison won the ballgame, 23-21, despite the three homers. "I wish a big 'W' had come with this," he said. "It's great to hit three homers, but the bottom line is whether you win or lose." Nonetheless, Hill will now have a place in the league record book. "I guess when you're hot, you're hot," he said. "I'm not going up there trying to hit home runs. I put the good part of the bat on it and luckily three of them went out today." Russ Hill singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Hen-to Wang in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Abdul-Qadir bin Samir in the 5th, flied out in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Chris Deveau in the 7th and flied out in the 9th. This season, Hill has posted a batting average of .278 with 5 hits in 18 at-bats, 3 home runs and 3 RBIs. He has also scored 5 runs, walked 2 times and compiled a .350 OBP. |
