Rushing Cracks 3 HRs for Brooklyn Tuesday, August 31st , 2038 The "hardest feat in sports" debate is a never-ending one with no correct answer, but hitting three home runs is certainly in the conversation. That's exactly what Mike Rushing did today at MCU Park, going deep three times and carrying his team to victory, 11-5. "It all came together. I was seeing the ball well and I got some good pitches to hit," Rushing said. "Good things happen, when that happens." The Brooklyn Cyclones left fielder blistered the Youngstown Gremlins for 3 hits, batted in 3 runs and scored 3 times. "It ain't like we weren't trying," Youngstown manager Alfredo Rojas said. "He was hot and really torched my boys today." Mike Rushing hit a solo-shot off Santiago Ramon in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Santiago Ramon in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Leo Holifield in the 5th and walked in the 7th. This season Rushing has hit at a .204 clip with 10 RBIs, 7 home runs and 13 runs scored. |
