Monday, July 12th , 2077
The old superstition that "bad news comes in threes" certainly came true for the San Antonio Missions today.

Springfield center fielder Jerrod Hartline tripled up on the home runs to propel the Cardinals to the 4-2 win at Nelson W. Wolff Municipal Stadium.

"We had our chances to win the game, but we just didn't come through," San Antonio manager Adam Sarnowski said. "Hartline hit the heck out of the ball."

In addition to the homers, Hartline collected 3 hits in 4 at-bats, 3 RBIs and scored 3 runs.

"Easy swings get you home runs," he said after the game. "I kept telling myself not to press. They have to be nice and easy swings."

Jerrod Hartline hit a solo-shot off Roger Mercer in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Roger Mercer in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Roger Mercer in the 5th and struck out in the 7th.

In his 2077 season totals, Hartline has 7 home runs, .257 BA, .349 OBP, 25 RBIs and 24 runs scored.
