In a powerful performance that left the fans at Sultan Park buzzing, Laredo Gators shortstop Jorge Pérez blasted a trio of home runs en route to a 13-1 win over the Sioux City Sultans.
"Everything was clicking," Pérez told the press. "My timing was good and I got pitches I could handle and I didn't miss them."
Pérez shined brilliantly in the win, with 3 hits in 4 at-bats, 4 RBIs and 4 runs scored.
"It's not just one guy, it's everybody," Gators manager said. "Jorge played great but it takes more than one guy to win a game."
Jorge Pérez was hit by a pitch in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Erik Byrd in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Erik Byrd in the 4th, walked in the 6th, flied out in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Joe Sampson in the 9th.
So far this season Pérez is hitting .240 with 6 home runs, 13 RBIs and 13 runs scored. He has 18 hits in 75 at-bats and a .367 OBP.
