Justice Smacks 3 Out of the Park
Sunday, June 21st , 2071
A.J. Justice brutalized the Amarillo Armadillos pitching staff, launching three home runs in today's 16-4 victory at The Burrow Presented by the PBE Bigger Strange Pod. The Kansas City Hepcats first baseman was red-hot, the ball just exploding off his bat all day.
"I don't try to hit homers," he said later. "I try to go out there and put a good swing on the ball, and sometimes it is going to go out of the park. I didn't try to hit the first one or the second one or the third one."
For the game, he went 3-for-5 with 6 RBIs and 4 runs scored.
"Too much A.J. Justice today," Armadillos manager said. "That's my assessment of the game. That's what our problems boiled down to."
A.J. Justice hit a solo-shot off Aaron Ritter in the 1st, grounded out in the 3rd, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a three-run home run off Gritty in the 5th, walked in the 7th and hit a two-run home run off IKEA BLĂ…HAJ in the 9th.
In his stats this season, Justice has posted a batting average of .297 with 65 hits in 219 at-bats, 15 home runs and 36 RBIs. He has also scored 38 runs, walked 12 times and compiled a .335 OBP.
