3 Bombs for Pedro Salazar Friday, January 19th , 2057 Pedro Salazar brutalized the Caribbean Sunbirds pitching staff, launching three home runs in today's 16-9 victory at El Salvador Park. The Central America Conquistadors 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 6 RBIs and 5 runs scored. "Too much Pedro Salazar today," Sunbirds manager Robert Morris said. "That's my assessment of the game. That's what our problems boiled down to." Pedro Salazar hit a solo-shot off Tony Sánchez in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Tony Sánchez in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Luis Vázquez in the 4th, walked in the 5th, walked in the 6th and struck out in the 8th. This year Salazar is batting .362 with 7 home runs and 25 RBIs. In 18 games he has scored 18 times. |
