Olmedo Belts 3 HRs Thursday, June 17th , 2083 Edmonton Trappers third baseman David Olmedo had a magnificent game against the Sudbury Astronauts, rocketing three balls out of Sudbury Grounds to help the Trappers win, 14-5. "I got some good pitches to hit and I creamed them," he said after the game. "The first was a big, fat fastball and the last two were hanging curves. All three were mistakes." For the game, Olmedo went 3-for-5 with 7 RBIs and 3 runs scored. "There's a fine line between hitting home runs and line drives," Edmonton manager said later. "Seems like David found his home run stroke today." David Olmedo hit a solo-shot off Roy Hackett in the 2nd, flied out in the 3rd, hit a three-run home run off Ismael Vasquez in the 4th, flied out in the 6th and hit a three-run home run off Josh McSwain in the 8th. Currently Olmedo has 12 home runs and a .297 batting average. |
