Smith Catches up on Yard Work -- Slams 4 Homers
Friday, September 9th , 2050
Hitting a single home run is a tough task. Hitting two in a game is impressive. Hitting three is remarkable. Anything beyond that is borderline unbelievable -- yet that's what Terrell Smith did today in the 20-19 Miami (APP) Marlins victory over the Bristol Pirates.
Smith went 5-for-6 with 4 home runs and drove in 7 runs in a once-in-a-lifetime feat that the opposing manager later labeled "impossible."
"I don't believe it really happened," Pirates manager Kyle Attl joked to BNN reporters afterward. "I don't ever enjoy losing a game, but this kid was special today. I have never seen a guy hit 4 in a game before. I didn't enjoy it, but it was special."
Terrell Smith hit a solo-shot off Erik Comito in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Erik Comito in the 3rd, hit a GRAND SLAM off Bill Cenci in the 5th, singled in the 6th, struck out in the 7th and hit a solo-shot off Kay Cooper in the 8th.
Smith is presently hitting at a .359 pace with 28 home runs and 90 RBIs. He has played in 80 games and scored 72 times.
