Avilés Tags 3 HR Against Diablos Tuesday, July 22nd , 2064 The "hardest feat in sports" debate is a never-ending one with no correct answer, but hitting three home runs is certainly in the conversation. That's exactly what José Avilés did today at Welsh Field, going deep three times and carrying his team to victory, 13-3. "It all came together. I was seeing the ball well and I got some good pitches to hit," Avilés said. "Good things happen, when that happens." The San Jose Cuervo catcher blistered the Mexico City Diablos for 4 hits, batted in 5 runs and scored 4 times. "It ain't like we weren't trying," Mexico City manager Terry Farrand said. "He was hot and really torched my boys today." José Avilés hit a two-run home run off Ryutaro Yamamoto in the 2nd, singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Ryutaro Yamamoto in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Fernando Guzmán in the 7th and walked in a run in the 8th. To date, Avilés has collected 91 hits for a .327 average. He has posted 23 home runs, scored 58 runs and driven in 64 runs. |
