Hernández Goes Long 3 Times Friday, June 23rd , 2051 Fernando Hernández went on an explosive hitting spree against the Palmyra Overlords at Overlords Ballpark today, launching a trio of blasts to lead the Brunswick Squares to the 15-11 win. The third baseman finished 4-for-4 with 4 runs scored and 6 RBI. "It was just one of those days," Hernández said in a postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball." Palmyra skipper José Santana said Hernández was "locked-in." "We made some pretty good pitches," he said. "Those first two homers were exactly where the pitcher wanted to put them. He's just hot right now -- you've just got to tip your hat to him." Fernando Hernández hit a two-run home run off Miguel Mejía in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Miguel Mejía in the 3rd, singled in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Juan Valdéz in the 6th, walked in the 8th and walked in the 9th. Hernández is hitting .328 for the season with 26 home runs, 72 RBIs and 56 runs scored. He has 81 hits in 247 at-bats and played in 72 games. |
