 | Barajas Whacks 3 Out of the Park for Canton Wednesday, April 20th , 2044 The "hardest feat in sports" debate is a never-ending one with no correct answer, but hitting three home runs is certainly in the conversation. That's exactly what Rich Barajas did at Morelia Stadium, going deep three times and carrying his team to victory, 13-4. "It all came together. I was seeing the ball well and I got some good pitches to hit," Barajas said. "Good things happen, when that happens." The Canton Legends third baseman blistered the Guadalajara Gooners for 3 hits, batted in 6 runs and scored 4 times. "It ain't like we weren't trying," Guadalajara manager said. "He was hot and really torched my boys today." Rich Barajas walked in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Israel Rodriguez in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Israel Rodriguez in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 5th, walked in the 7th and grounded out in the 9th. This year, Barajas is batting .278 with 5 home runs. He has scored 9 runs and driven in 11. |   |
