| 3-HR Day for Gallegos Saturday, March 18th , 2045 It was a good day for the Aguascalientes HS Attack and an exceptional one for Alberto Gallegos. The 15-year-old first baseman sent three bombs out of the park to help the Attack beat the Managua HS Pipeliners, 8-7, at Pipeliners Park.
"When you're in the zone, the game really slows down," Gallegos said when asked about his performance later. "I couldn't even tell you what pitches were thrown. Today feels great, but it is a long season and tomorrow is another day."
For the day, he scored 3 times, drove in 4 runs and smacked 3 hits in 4 at-bats.
Alberto Gallegos hit a two-run home run off Chris Avila in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Chris Avila in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Chris Avila in the 5th, flied out in the 6th and walked in the 8th.
This year, Gallegos has hit at a .302 pace and produced 9 RBIs, 4 home runs and scored 11 runs. | | |
