Thomas Blasts 3 into Bleachers Tuesday, July 18th , 2051 The old superstition that "bad news comes in threes" certainly came true for the Welch Miners today. Pulaski center fielder Donavon Thomas tripled up on the home runs to propel the Yankees to the 6-1 win at Calfee Park. "We had our chances to win the game, but we just didn't come through," Welch manager Justin Lake said. "Thomas hit the heck out of the ball." In addition to the homers, Thomas collected 3 hits in 4 at-bats, 5 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." Donavon Thomas grounded out in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Roque Panchana in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Roque Panchana in the 5th and hit a solo-shot off Jace Elliot in the 7th. This season Thomas is batting .343 with 8 home runs. |
