Hicks on Fire: Burns Augusta with 3 HR
Wednesday, May 20th , 2071
Anyone wearing a glove and sitting in the bleachers for today's Power-Greenjackets game had a good chance at snagging a home run ball.
West Virginia left fielder Jason Hicks thrice sent eager fans scurrying to catch a souvenir, helping lead the West Virginia to a 16-4 win over Augusta.
"Hey, the three homers were great, but I'm just trying to help my ballclub," Hicks said later. "I'm not going out there thinking I need another home run."
Hicks was 3-for-5 on the day with 8 runs batted in.
Jason Hicks grounded out in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Brant McDermott in the 4th, hit a three-run home run off Brant McDermott in the 5th, hit a GRAND SLAM off JoaquĆn Huerta in the 6th, walked in the 7th and struck out in the 8th.
On the year Hicks is hitting .242 with 29 hits, 5 home runs, 25 RBIs, .404 OBP and has scored 23 runs.
