Swing! Swang! Swung! Watson Smashes 3 HR Monday, September 15th , 2064 Fans seated in the bleacher section at Stars Field were taking cover all day long as David Watson zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power. The big game from the Tallahassee right fielder helped the Captains take the victory, 14-8, over the State College Swallowtails. "I told myself not to press on the last one," he told reporters in the postgame press conference. "I knew I couldn't force it -- it has to be a nice easy swing." For the game, he collected 3 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 7 and scored 3 runs. David Watson hit a two-run home run off Éric Coulon in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, flied out in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Martin Butler in the 7th and hit a GRAND SLAM off Chris Collins in the 8th. Watson is batting at a .240 pace this season, picking up 36 hits in 150 at-bats with 11 home runs, 22 RBIs and 35 runs scored. |
