Moonshots: Sanchez Knocks 4 out of Sight Friday, April 12th , 2052 Hitting a single home run is a tough task. Hitting two in a game is impressive. Hitting three is remarkable. Anything beyond that is borderline unbelievable -- yet that's what Reynaldo Sanchez did today in the 21-6 Houston Orange Kings victory over the Lincolnville Abes. Sanchez went 4-for-6 with 4 home runs and drove in 6 runs in a once-in-a-lifetime feat that the opposing manager later labeled "impossible." "I don't believe it really happened," Abes manager Ernesto Ortega joked to BNN reporters afterward. "I don't ever enjoy losing a game, but this kid was special today. I have never seen a guy hit 4 in a game before. I didn't enjoy it, but it was special." Reynaldo Sanchez grounded out in the 2nd, flied out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Kevin Mueller in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Alex Ortiz in the 6th, hit a two-run home run off David Vasquez in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off Jose Reyna in the 7th. So far this year, Sanchez has 5 home runs and a .350 batting average. View Boxscore |
