Kualii Slugs 4 HR Against Stars
Nothing could stop Hokuaonani Kualii -- certainly not the Tehran Stars pitching staff.

The 29-year-old center fielder for the Tokyo Choho sent 4 baseballs soaring out of Tehran Stadium and made his name a part of history. Behind his barrage, the Choho earned a win, 15-4, over the Stars.

"In the standings, a loss is just a loss, but this one was frustrating," Stars manager Jordan Turcios said later. "He clobbered us."

Kualii's dream game included 4 hits in 5 at-bats, 4 homers, 7 runs driven in and 4 runs scored.

"I know all the stories are going to be about me today, and that's OK," Kualii told the press in the locker room after the game. "Next time, it'll be one of the other guys."

Hokuaonani Kualii hit a solo-shot off Jon Gutierrez in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Jon Gutierrez in the 3rd, hit a GRAND SLAM off Jon Gutierrez in the 4th, walked in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Beremew Mbaruku in the 7th and flied out in the 8th.

Kualii is batting .256 with 9 home runs and 21 RBIs this season.
