Villanueva Launches 3 HR for Salt Hawks Monday, May 9th , 2016 Hutchinson Salt Hawks center fielder Luis Villanueva had a magnificent game against the Calgary Cowboys, rocketing three balls out of Cowboys Ballpark to help the Salt Hawks win, 9-6. "I got some good pitches to hit and I creamed them," he said after the game. "The first was a big, fat fastball and the last two were hanging curves. All three were mistakes." For the game, Villanueva went 4-for-5 with 6 RBIs and 3 runs scored. "There's a fine line between hitting home runs and line drives," Hutchinson manager said later. "Seems like Luis found his home run stroke today." Luis Villanueva hit a solo-shot off Jeff Turner in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Jeff Turner in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, hit a GRAND SLAM off Jim Unknown in the 8th and singled in the 9th. In 25 games Villanueva is hitting .275 this season with 25 hits, 10 home runs, 19 RBIs, 13 walks, .380 OBP and has scored 17 runs. |
