3 Home Runs for Garza
Tuesday, May 2nd , 2062
Luis Garza was in a home run mode at Magnificent Marauders Mansion. The Maple first baseman massacred Pioneers pitching, cracking out three home runs and going 4-for-5 with 3 RBIs and scoring 3 runs. But this sensational performance didn't really matter. Vancouver won the ballgame, 12-7, 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, Garza 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."
Luis Garza singled in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Jose Calderon in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Jose Calderon in the 5th, flied out in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Carlos Reyes in the 9th.
In 27 games this season, Garza has batted at a .227 pace with 27 hits and 7 home runs.
