Childress Jacks 3 into the Stands Thursday, June 13th , 2052 Jarrod Childress was in a home run mode at Lumberjacks Park. The Cancun left fielder massacred Acorns pitching, cracking out three home runs and going 4-for-4 with 6 RBIs and scoring 3 runs. But this sensational performance didn't really matter. Bellefonte won the ballgame, 9-7, despite the three homers. "I wish a big 'W' had come with this," he said. "It's great to hit three homers, but the bottom line is whether you win or lose." Nonetheless, Childress will now have a place in the league record book. "I guess when you're hot, you're hot," he said. "I'm not going up there trying to hit home runs. I put the good part of the bat on it and luckily three of them went out today." Jarrod Childress hit a solo-shot off Gabe Hurtado in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Gabe Hurtado in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Gabe Hurtado in the 5th, singled in the 7th and hit a sac fly in the 9th. Childress is hitting .290 this year with 10 home runs and 27 RBIs. He also has an OBP of .370, 28 walks and scored 41 times. |
