Rocha Goes Downtown 3 Times Against Trojans Tuesday, April 25th , 2062 Fans seated in the bleacher section at Ottawa HS Grounds were taking cover all day long as Alex Rocha zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power. The big game from the Barnwell catcher helped the Warhorses take the victory, 15-3, over the Terra Linda Trojans. "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 4 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 6 and scored 5 runs. Alex Rocha walked in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, hit a three-run home run off Mike Kalk in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Mike Michael in the 5th, flied out in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Mark Fitzpatrick in the 8th. This season, Rocha is batting at a .466 clip with 31 home runs and 83 RBIs. |
