Vargas Blasts 3 out of the Park Thursday, August 3rd , 2045 Players don't hit three home runs in a game very often and when they do, it is something to celebrate. After today, Dave Vargas can celebrate. The Mobile BayBears left fielder powered three into the stands at Hank Aaron Stadium today against the Colorado (EL) Rockies. "It's rare that you actually try to hit a home run," Vargas told reporters after the game. "Most of the time you fail, if you really try to hit one. But today, I was really trying on that last one." In all, he was 3-for-3 as the BayBears toppled Colorado (EL) by a score of 7-2, knocking in 3 runs and scoring 4 times. "He is blessed with a natural home run swing," Mobile manager Jonathan Sexton said. "He gets the ball up in the air." Dave Vargas hit a solo-shot off Yasushi Osumi in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Yasushi Osumi in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Andy Silveira in the 4th, walked in the 6th and walked in the 8th. In his season totals, Vargas has 16 home runs, .295 BA, .397 OBP, 61 RBIs and 86 runs scored. He has played in 98 games. |
