Butterbaugh Belts 3 HR Against Pittsburgh Thursday, October 3rd , 2047 St. Louis Cardinals bombardier Tom Butterbaugh set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club took a 11-4 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates today.

Tom Butterbaugh hit a two-run home run off Vince Scripp in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Vince Scripp in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Jeremy Parsnip in the 4th, walked in the 6th and struck out in the 8th.
