In a powerful performance that left the fans at Modern Woodmen Park buzzing, Quad Cities River Bandits second baseman Chad Erickson blasted a trio of home runs en route to a 8-5 win over the Cedar Rapids Kernels.
"Everything was clicking," Erickson told the press. "My timing was good and I got pitches I could handle and I didn't miss them."
Erickson shined brilliantly in the win, with 4 hits in 4 at-bats, 6 RBIs and 3 runs scored.
"It's not just one guy, it's everybody," River Bandits manager Rich Mejia said. "Chad played great but it takes more than one guy to win a game."
Chad Erickson hit a solo-shot off Alfredo Perez in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Alfredo Perez in the 2nd, hit an RBI single in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Manny Montana in the 6th and walked in the 8th.
