GONE! GONE! GONE! 3 HRs for Hoalohalani Monday, July 24th , 2051 Hitting three home runs in a game is usually something to celebrate, but there was no celebration to be found at Wrangler Stadium after the hitting barrage from Kapuaula Hoalohalani. The Moose Jaw Ghostbusters dropped the contest 16-12 to the Ipswich Town Blues, leaving Hoalohalani with only a historical footnote as consolation. Kapuaula is blessed with a natural home run swing so he gets the ball up in the air real quickly," Moose Jaw manager Zack Payton said after the loss. "It's just a shame we couldn't win the game, too. I'm sure it spoils the day a little for him." Along with putting three in the stands, Hoalohalani went 3-for-6 with 6 RBIs and 3 runs scored. "It's rare that you actually try to hit a home run," he told reporters after the game. "Mostly you'll fail if you really try to hit one, but today I tried on the last one." Kapuaula Hoalohalani hit a two-run home run off John Campbell in the 1st, struck out in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off John Campbell in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Ralph King in the 7th, flied out in the 9th, walked in the 11th and flied out in the 13th. This season in 96 games Hoalohalani is batting .308 with 50 home runs, 103 RBIs and has scored 92 times. |
