Big 3-HR Day for Lewis
Saturday, June 13th, 2037
Joe Lewis was in a home run mode today at The Quarantine. The Death Valley third baseman massacred Johnnys pitching, cracking out three home runs and going 3-for-4 with 3 RBIs and scoring 3 runs. But this sensational performance didn't really matter. Knoxville won the ballgame 4-3 despite the three homers.
"I wish a big 'W' had come with this," he said. "It's great to hit three homers, but the bottom line is whether you win or lose."
Nonetheless, Lewis will now have a place in the league record book.
"I guess when you're hot, you're hot," he said. "I'm not going up there trying to hit home runs. I put the good part of the bat on it and luckily three of them went out today."
Joe Lewis hit a solo-shot off Manuel Carrión in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Manuel Carrión in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Gabriel Martínez in the 8th.
In the 2037 season Lewis is hitting .274 with 11 home runs.
