Kiernan Launches 3 HR for Baysox Thursday, June 6th , 2052 Bowie Baysox second baseman Valentin Kiernan sensed he was going to have a good day at the plate, but he still might have underestimated it a little. Prior to the start of today's contest with the Somerset Patriots, Kiernan told teammates he was sure he would hit a home run. He did -- three times. "During batting practice I really had my swing down pat," he recalled. "I felt some thunder in the lumber." The big day from Kiernan pushed the Baysox past the Patriots, 5-0. To go along with the homers, he collected 5 RBIs and scored 3 runs. "I was seeing good, feeling good and swinging good," Kiernan told reporters after the game. Valentin Kiernan hit a three-run home run off Callan Jordan in the 1st, struck out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Callan Jordan in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Luca Castillo in the 8th. This year Kiernan has hit at a .237 clip with 38 hits, 6 home runs, 15 RBIs and 27 runs scored. |
