Dennis Vélez Strokes 3 Home Runs Sunday, August 22nd , 2038 Hobart Devils bombardier Dennis Vélez set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club took a 11-0 win over the North Sydney Kookaburras today. "I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Vélez told writers in the postgame press room. "I was ahead in the count, so I gambled that I'd get a certain pitch, and got all of it." For the game, the Hobart third baseman had 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 4, and scored 3 runs. Dennis Vélez flied out in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Manuel Álvarez in the 4th, walked in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Jing Zhang in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Alfredo Acevedo in the 9th. Vélez is hitting .218 so far this season with 31 RBIs and 30 runs scored. He has 44 hits including 14 home runs, 32 walks and .339 OBP. |
