Ortíz Rips 3 Homers Against Wood Ducks Saturday, July 2nd, 2033 Whatever José Ortíz ate for breakfast before his game against the Down East Wood Ducks today, it gave him some impressive power. The Frederick second baseman smacked three balls up and out of the park at Harry Grove Stadium. His home run barrage led the Keys to take the 13-10 victory over the Wood Ducks. "When they throw it in your wheelhouse, you've got a shot at a homer," he told BNN reporters after the game. "I got three shots today and nailed them all." On his 3-homer day, he went 3-for-4, scored 4 times, drove in 6 and put on a display that history will remember. José Ortíz grounded out in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 6th and hit a three-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 7th. In his stats this season, Ortíz has posted a batting average of .240 with 53 hits in 221 at-bats, 16 home runs and 40 RBIs. He has also scored 37 runs, walked 7 times and compiled a .273 OBP. |
