Thomas Cracks 3 HR for Bruins
Sunday, April 16th , 2051
Don Thomas went yard three times in a UCLA Bruins victory over the Florida State Seminoles at Mike Martin Field at Dick Howser Stadium today.
"I was in a groove," he said. "Every pitch they tossed up there looked like a grapefruit."
For the day, the UCLA first baseman went 3-for-6 against Florida State with 5 RBIs and 3 runs scored in a brilliant display of power hitting that led the Bruins to the 10-4 win.
"I tell you what. I'm shocked because I didn't think that last ball had enough to get out," he told BNN reporters in the clubhouse following the game. "I thought it was just going to be a long out."
Don Thomas struck out in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Ben Cameron in the 6th, struck out in the 8th, hit a solo-shot off Joe Logan in the 9th and hit a three-run home run off Kevin Galloway in the 10th.
This season Thomas has hit at a .357 clip with 17 RBIs, 4 home runs and 17 runs scored.
