Ramsdell Goes Long 3 Times
Tuesday, June 5th , 2068
Fans seated in the bleacher section at Swamp Dragons Stadium were taking cover all day long as Rick Ramsdell zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power.
The big game from the St. Augustine first baseman helped the Crusade take the victory, 5-4, over the Puerto Vallarta Freedom.
"I told myself not to press on the last one," he told reporters in the postgame press conference. "I knew I couldn't force it -- it has to be a nice easy swing."
For the game, he collected 3 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 4 and scored 3 runs.
Rick Ramsdell hit a two-run home run off John Hines in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off John Hines in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 5th, walked in the 7th and flied out in the 9th.
This season Ramsdell has hit at a .240 clip with 39 RBIs, 17 home runs and 24 runs scored. He has played in 53 games.
