Thursday, July 25th , 2047
David Sharp went on an explosive hitting spree against the Boston (APP) Red Sox at Juan Marichal Complex today, launching a trio of blasts to lead the Oakland (APP) Athletics to the 17-0 win.
The third baseman finished 3-for-3 with 3 runs scored and 7 runs batted in.
"It was just one of those days," Sharp said in a postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball."
Boston (APP) skipper Drew Vettleson said Sharp was "locked-in."
"We made some pretty good pitches," he said. "Those first two homers were exactly where the pitcher wanted to put them. He's just hot right now -- you've just got to tip your hat to him."
David Sharp hit a three-run home run off Matt Collins in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Jose Andujar in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Jose Andujar in the 4th and walked in the 5th.
So far this season Sharp has gotten 75 hits in 253 at-bats for a .296 batting average with 40 home runs. His stats include 90 RBIs and 79 runs scored. He has played in 63 games.
