Fans seated in the bleacher section at Berry Field were taking cover all day long as Gilberto Asconcio zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power.

The big game from the Del Mar center fielder helped the Racers take the victory, 10-3, over the Jasper Cougars.

"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 4 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 5 and scored 4 runs.

Gilberto Asconcio singled in the 1st, flied out in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Kenny Clayton in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Joe Taylor in the 6th and hit a two-run home run off José Martínez in the 7th.
