Walker Rips 3 Homers Against Sluggers
Saturday, September 13th , 2059
Noah Walker went on an explosive hitting spree against the Louisville Sluggers at Whirlwind Alley today, launching a trio of blasts to lead the Oklahoma City Whirlwind to the 14-4 win.
The first baseman finished 3-for-4 with 3 runs scored and 9 RBI.
"It was just one of those days," Walker said in a postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball."
Louisville skipper said Walker was "locked-in."
"We made some pretty good pitches," he said. "Those first two homers were exactly where the pitcher wanted to put them. He's just hot right now -- you've just got to tip your hat to him."
Noah Walker hit a sac fly in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off David Fernandez in the 3rd, hit a three-run home run off David Fernandez in the 5th, hit a three-run home run off Ji-e Kuai in the 6th and grounded out in the 8th.
Thus far this year Walker is batting .290 with 23 home runs, 99 RBIs and 84 runs scored.
