Allen Bashes 3 HR for Orlando Friday, May 3rd , 2075 Anyone wearing a glove and sitting in the bleachers for today's Rum Runners-Launch game had a good chance at snagging a home run ball. Orlando right fielder Ed Allen thrice sent eager fans scurrying to catch a souvenir, helping lead the Orlando to a win, 13-2, over Cape Canaveral. "Hey, the three homers were great, but I'm just trying to help my ballclub," Allen said later. "I'm not going out there thinking I need another home run." Allen, who is tied for 9th in the AP in runs scored with 17, was 5-for-6 on the day with 6 RBI. Ed Allen singled in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Tim Estes in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Tim Estes in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Tony Colón in the 6th, singled in the 9th and struck out in the 9th. Thus far this season in 22 games, Allen is batting .301 with 3 home runs, 16 RBIs and 17 runs scored. He has 28 hits in 93 at-bats. |
