Marrero Is King of Swing: Goes Deep 3 Times Thursday, March 22nd , 2040 Fans seated in the bleacher section at Field of the Lords were taking cover all day long as Jesús Marrero zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power. The big game from the Oswego HS right fielder helped the Lynx take the victory, 5-2, over the Castle HS Lords. "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 3 and scored 3 runs. Jesús Marrero hit a solo-shot off River Brown in the 1st, struck out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Archie Mason in the 6th, hit a solo-shot off Michael Nelson in the 8th and flied out in the 9th. Currently Marrero has 8 home runs and a .272 batting average. |
