Andy Gonzales Bashes Three over the Wall
Saturday, July 16th , 2078
Fans seated in the bleacher section at Saxons Ballpark were taking cover all day long as Andy Gonzales zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power.
The big game from the Lake Dalecarlia catcher helped the Saxons take the victory, 9-0, over the Hoxie Scots.
"I told myself not to press on the last one," he told reporters in the postgame press conference. "I knew I couldn't force it -- it has to be a nice easy swing."
For the game, he collected 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 5 and scored 3 runs.
Andy Gonzales flied out in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Mike Malpass in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Mike Malpass in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Toshihiko Shimizu in the 8th.
Batting .288 to date, Gonzales has 7 home runs and 9 RBIs.
