U on Fire: Burns Yasu with 3 HR
Thursday, September 4th , 2042
Yong-u U was sending souvenirs to the sun gods all game long in the 12-2 Ewa Beach Imperialists triumph at Rison Grounds.
The 22-year-old put on a show for fans, launching not one, not two, but three home runs into the stands and powering the Imperialists past the Yasu Storks.
"One homer's good, two's great, three's out of sight," U told BNN reporters after the game. "I can't wait until next game. I really feel good at the plate."
The center fielder went 3-for-4, rung up 7 RBIs and scored 3 runs on his record-setting day.
Yong-u U hit a three-run home run off José Sousa in the 2nd, hit a three-run home run off José Sousa in the 4th, struck out in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Yugoro Hirose in the 7th.
U is swinging at a .250 pace on the year with 9 home runs, 22 RBIs and 14 runs scored. He has played in 67 games.
