 | Tuesday, May 19th, 2009: López Laces 3 HR Against Provo
Three home runs in a game doesn't happen often.
When it does it is something special to celebrate.
And Jorge López of Honolulu can celebrate it.
He is now a member of the select group of players, who have hit three home runs in a single game. He powered three into the stands today at Tidal Wave Stadium against the Provo Loans.
In all he was 4-4 as the Tsunami toppled Provo 14-1, knocking in 4 runs and scoring 4 times.
López told reporters after the game, "It's rare that you actually try to hit a home run. Most of the time you fail, if you really try to hit one. But today I tried on the last one."
His manager added, "He is blessed with a natural home run swing. He gets the ball up in the air."
J. López singled in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off B. Abbotson in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off A. Jones in the 4th, walked in the 6th, walked in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off C. Plemmons in the 9th.
