Bazaldua Rocks Z's for 3 HRs
Tuesday, April 16th , 2024
Willie Bazaldua went yard three times in a Quebec Fighting Quakers victory over the Ann Arbor Z's at Knights Ballpark.
"I was in a groove," he said. "Every pitch they tossed up there looked like a grapefruit."
For the day, the Quebec catcher went 3-for-6 against Ann Arbor with 7 RBIs and 3 runs scored in a brilliant display of power hitting that led the Fighting Quakers to the 16-2 win.
"I tell you what. I'm shocked because I didn't think that last ball had enough to get out," he told BNN reporters in the clubhouse following the game. "I thought it was just going to be a long out."
Willie Bazaldua hit a solo-shot off Kevin Gibbons in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Kevin Gibbons in the 3rd, struck out in the 4th, hit a three-run home run off Miguel Gomez in the 6th, flied out in the 7th and flied out in the 9th.
This year, Bazaldua is batting .211 with 3 home runs and 10 RBIs.
