Jones Slams 3 Homers for Nationals
Wednesday, September 9th , 2048
Dusty Jones was in a home run mode today at Area 51. The Palm Beach catcher massacred Invaders pitching, cracking out three home runs and going 4-for-4 with 5 RBIs and scoring 3 runs. But this sensational performance didn't really matter. Roswell won the ballgame 6-5 despite the three homers.
"I wish a big 'W' had come with this," he said. "It's great to hit three homers, but the bottom line is whether you win or lose."
Nonetheless, Jones will now have a place in the league record book.
"I guess when you're hot, you're hot," he said. "I'm not going up there trying to hit home runs. I put the good part of the bat on it and luckily three of them went out today."
Dusty Jones hit a solo-shot off Elias Reyes in the 3rd, hit a two-run home run off Elias Reyes in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Elias Reyes in the 7th and singled in the 9th.
This year Jones is batting .207 with 6 home runs. He has scored 9 runs and driven in 11.
