Oliva Is King of Swing: Goes Deep 3 Times Friday, January 4th , 2058 It was a good day for the Heinz 57s and an exceptional one for Fernando Oliva. The 14-year-old left fielder sent three bombs out of the park to help the 57s beat the Texaco Stars 19-8 at Steeldogs Ballpark. "When you're in the zone, the game really slows down," Oliva said when asked about his performance later. "I couldn't even tell you what pitches were thrown. Today feels great, but it is a long season and tomorrow is another day." For the day, he scored 5 times, drove in 9 runs and smacked 5 hits in 5 at-bats. Fernando Oliva singled in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Sergio Fumtes in the 3rd, hit a GRAND SLAM off Javier Paredez in the 4th, singled in the 5th, walked in the 7th and hit a GRAND SLAM off Bradly Thomas in the 8th. |
