Rangers Pastore Raps 3 Homers
Wednesday, October 5th , 2044
Texas (APP) Rangers first baseman Ryan Pastore sensed he was going to have a good day at the plate, but he still might have underestimated it a little.
Prior to the start of today's contest with the Detroit (APP) Tigers, Pastore told teammates he was sure he would hit a home run. He did -- three times.
"During batting practice I really had my swing down pat," he recalled. "I felt some thunder in the lumber."
The big day from Pastore pushed the Rangers past the Tigers, 4-2. To go along with the homers, he collected 4 RBIs and scored 3 runs.
"I was seeing good, feeling good and swinging good," Pastore told reporters after the game.
Ryan Pastore hit a solo-shot off Dave Valdez in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Dave Valdez in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Dave Valdez in the 6th and struck out in the 7th.
So far this season Pastore is hitting .406 with 96 home runs.
