| 3 Boomers for Leary Saturday, June 7th , 2042 Justin Leary brutalized the Hampton Township Buzz pitching staff, launching three home runs in the 11-3 New Orleans victory at New Orleans Grounds. The New Orleans Winter Hawks shortstop was red-hot, the ball just exploding off his bat all day.
"I don't try to hit homers," he said later. "I try to go out there and put a good swing on the ball, and sometimes it is going to go out of the park. I didn't try to hit the first one or the second one or the third one."
For the game, he went 4-for-4 with 4 RBIs and 3 runs scored.
"Too much Justin Leary today," Buzz manager said. "That's my assessment of the game. That's what our problems boiled down to."
Justin Leary hit a solo-shot off Ruben Perez in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Myles Sullivan in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Myles Sullivan in the 4th, walked in the 6th and doubled in the 7th.
