Monster 3-HR Day for Pickhills Saturday, June 26th , 2151 Lille Fleur-de-Lis bombardier Axel Pickhills set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the Guangzhou Emperors, 10-6. "I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Pickhills told writers in the postgame press room. "I was ahead in the count, so I gambled that I'd get a certain pitch, and got all of it." For the game, the Lille shortstop had 3 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 4, and scored 3 runs. Axel Pickhills grounded out in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Qian-hua Lee in the 3rd, grounded out in the 4th, hit a solo-shot off Ken Williams in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Raphaël Meyer in the 8th. So far this season, Pickhills has gotten 60 hits in 258 at-bats for a .233 batting average with 17 home runs. His stats include 31 RBIs and 37 runs scored. He has played in 68 games. |
