Thrice Is Nice: Silva Unloads 3 Homers Sunday, September 11th , 2039 Jesús Silva added his name in the record books after an explosive home run spree against the Mokule'ia Oceanic. But despite joining the select list of sluggers to hit three home runs in a game, it didn't guarantee a victory. The Shirakawa Halberds fell to the Oceanic, 8-6. In his big day at Halberds Ballpark, the Shirakawa third baseman went 4-for-4 with 3 RBIs and scored 3 times. "It was just one of those days," he told BNN sportswriters in the postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball. "You would think three homers would win most games. It was good to hit 'em, but a win would have really made my day." Jesús Silva hit a solo-shot off Toshimichi Ohayashi in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Toshimichi Ohayashi in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Julien Georges in the 8th. Silva is presently hitting at a .260 pace with 14 home runs, 21 RBIs and has scored 24 times. |
