Alex Torres Strokes 3 Home Runs Thursday, August 30th , 2108 Whatever Alex Torres ate for breakfast before his game against the Montgomery Biscuits, it gave him some impressive power. The Tennessee center fielder smacked three balls up and out of the park at Smokies Park. His home run barrage helped the Smokies defeat the Biscuits, 17-3. "When they throw it in your wheelhouse, you've got a shot at a homer," he told BNN reporters after the game. "I got three shots today and nailed them all." On his 3-homer day, he went 4-for-5, scored 4 times, drove in 8 and put on a display that history will remember. Alex Torres walked in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Johnny Grove in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off Desiderio Sapani in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Juan Andrade in the 5th, singled in the 6th and flied out in the 8th. This season, Torres has hit at a .310 clip with 42 RBIs, 11 home runs and 53 runs scored. He has played in 68 games. |
