Cooperstown Diamond Legends News Article | |  | Tuesday, July 30th, 2030: Horne Powers 3 HR Against Seattle Fans seated in the bleacher section at Safeco Field were taking cover all day long as Craig Horne took aim, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power. Days like this are rare. After his amazing performance in New York (A)'s 11-4 triumph over the Seattle Mariners, the first baseman's name will soon be added into the record books.
He told reporters at the postgame press conference, "I told myself not to press on the last one. I knew I couldn't force it... that it has to be a nice easy swing."
For the game he collected 3 hits in 4 at-bats, batted in 4 and scored 3 runs.
C. Horne hit a two-run home run off C. Vargas in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off C. Vargas in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off F. Márquez in the 5th, walked in the 6th and grounded out in the 8th.
So far this season Horne has hit .285 with 34 home runs, 81 RBIs and and scored 70 times. | |
