Elliott Rips 3 Homers Against Patriots Tuesday, August 25th , 2054 George Elliott brutalized the Fishkill Patriots pitching staff, launching three home runs in the 9-5 State College victory at Dirty South Park. The State College Spikes left fielder was red-hot, the ball just exploding off his bat all day. "I don't try to hit homers," he said later. "I try to go out there and put a good swing on the ball, and sometimes it is going to go out of the park. I didn't try to hit the first one or the second one or the third one." For the game, he went 3-for-4 with 4 RBIs and 3 runs scored. "Too much George Elliott today," Patriots manager Norm Scott said. "That's my assessment of the game. That's what our problems boiled down to." George Elliott hit a solo-shot off Alfredo Palmeiro in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Alfredo Palmeiro in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Adrián Corona in the 5th and flied out in the 7th. This year, Elliott is hitting .231 with 106 hits, 37 home runs, 70 RBIs and has scored 77 runs. |
