Thornton Pounds 3 HR
Monday, July 16th, 2063
Bethlehem right fielder Alex Thornton led the Ironmen to a 20-5 triumph over the Edmonton Trappers, crushing three home runs.
"He's scary good when he's swinging the bat like that," said Bethlehem skipper .
Indeed, Thornton put up some "scary good" numbers: three homers, 3 hits in 4 at-bats with 3 runs and 3 RBIs.
"I'm just thinkin' about winning ballgames," Thornton said. "When you think about home runs, you very seldom get 'em."
Alex Thornton flied out in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Júlio Balderas in the 2nd, walked in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Douglas Anstey in the 6th, walked in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Dorian Chauvin in the 8th.
This year Thornton has hit 17 home runs and posted a .267 batting average.
