Wild Hares Hernández Raps 3 Homers
Thursday, February 16th , 2062
António Hernández went yard three times in a Shiner Wild Hares victory over the Kellogg Tigers at Shiner Field.
"I was in a groove," he said. "Every pitch they tossed up there looked like a grapefruit."
For the day, the Shiner first baseman went 3-for-5 against Kellogg with 5 RBIs and 3 runs scored in a brilliant display of power hitting that led the Wild Hares to the 10-5 win.
"I tell you what. I'm shocked because I didn't think that last ball had enough to get out," he told BNN reporters in the clubhouse following the game. "I thought it was just going to be a long out."
António Hernández hit a solo-shot off José Juárez in the 2nd, struck out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Alberto Martínez in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off Joe Faris in the 7th and struck out in the 8th.
Thus far this year, Hernández has hit .275 with 15 home runs and 36 RBIs.
