Rosales Jacks 3 into the Stands Monday, June 13th , 2016 Denver Grizzlies right fielder Roberto Rosales put on a dazzling display of power at Jellystone Park against the Homer Yetis. In the 8-5 Grizzlies victory, Rosales penned his name into the record books, slamming a trio of home runs in one of baseball's finest single-day efforts. "He can hit them out anywhere, right, center, left, it doesn't matter," Homer manager Drew Johnson said. "He's super strong and stays on the ball so well." Along with his three home runs, the 26-year-old had 4 hits in 4 at-bats, 7 RBIs and 3 runs scored. "Life will always throw you curves, just keep fouling them off," Rosales said after the game, when asked about his hitting philosophy. "The right pitch will come, and when it does, be prepared to run the bases. Or trot around them, like I did today." Roberto Rosales hit a two-run home run off Adrian Mattingly in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Adrian Mattingly in the 3rd, hit a three-run double in the 4th and hit a solo-shot off Luis Alvarado in the 7th. This season, Rosales has hit at a .304 clip with 44 RBIs, 19 home runs and 27 runs scored. |
