 | Garcia Blasts 3 into Bleachers Saturday, April 15th , 2045 Carlos Garcia must believe in the Big Bang theory. He proved it by banging three deep against the Vancouver College Players. The hard-hitting León College Magicians third baseman added a lot of firepower and excitement to the 9-8 Magicians win, leaving fans and the opposing dugout buzzing about his standout performance. "He looked real good today," Vancouver College manager said later. "I think the guys were awful impressed by him. Frustrated, but impressed." For the game, Garcia had 4 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 6, and scored 3 runs. The 22-year-old is known in league circles as a tireless worker, and told reporters he has recently been putting in extra time fine-tuning his swing, "to keep it short, compact and simple." "Looks like it worked today," he said. Carlos Garcia hit a three-run home run off Forrest Bachleitner in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Jack Barteaux in the 4th, singled in the 6th and hit a two-run home run off Junior MacBride in the 8th. This season, Garcia is hitting at a .300 pace with 6 home runs, 18 RBIs and has scored 15 times. |   |
