Earnest Bangs 3 HR Against Fort Myers Thursday, January 2nd , 2048 It was a good day for the Rancho Cucamonga Quakes and an exceptional one for Curt Earnest. The 36-year-old second baseman sent three bombs out of the park to help the Quakes beat the Fort Myers Miracle 10-2 at LoanMart Field. "When you're in the zone, the game really slows down," Earnest said when asked about his performance later. "I couldn't even tell you what pitches were thrown. Today feels great, but it is a long season and tomorrow is another day." For the day, he scored 3 times, drove in 6 runs and smacked 4 hits in 5 at-bats. Curt Earnest struck out in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Tony Icamen in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off David Gordon in the 4th, doubled in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Choji Tominaga in the 8th. Looking at his stats this year, Earnest has compiled a .235 batting average, while hitting 4 home runs and driving in 14 runs. He has played in 25 games and scored 20 runs. |
