Big Bang! 3 HR for Suva's Molia
Wednesday, January 31st , 2063
Manaolana Molia went yard three times in a Suva Desperados victory over the Auckland Warriors at Warriors Field.
"I was in a groove," he said. "Every pitch they tossed up there looked like a grapefruit."
For the day, the Suva first baseman went 4-for-5 against Auckland with 7 RBIs and 3 runs scored in a brilliant display of power hitting that led the Desperados to the 13-6 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."
Manaolana Molia hit a GRAND SLAM off Antony Naylor in the 2nd, struck out in the 2nd, singled in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 9th.
This season, Molia is batting .325 with 3 home runs.
