Menéndez Slams 3 Deep for Gulf Oil Monday, February 13th , 2062 Gulf Oil Drillers first baseman Pedro Menéndez had a magnificent game against the Gillette Razors, rocketing three balls out of Visions Field to help the Drillers win, 12-7. "I got some good pitches to hit and I creamed them," he said after the game. "The first was a big, fat fastball and the last two were hanging curves. All three were mistakes." For the game, Menéndez went 3-for-4 with 6 RBIs and 3 runs scored. "There's a fine line between hitting home runs and line drives," Gulf Oil manager Robby Brown said later. "Seems like Pedro found his home run stroke today." Pedro Menéndez walked in the 1st, hit a GRAND SLAM off Merrill Turner in the 2nd, struck out in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Robinson Kim in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Júlio Rúbio in the 8th. This year, Menéndez is batting .342 with 53 hits and 17 home runs. He has scored 34 times and has batted in 50 runs. |
