Wichita Panthers bombardier Joe Gilbreath set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the Niskayuna Fighting Knights, 12-3.

"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Gilbreath told writers in the postgame press room. "I was ahead in the count, so I gambled that I'd get a certain pitch, and got all of it."

For the game, the Wichita left fielder had 3 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 5, and scored 3 runs.

Joe Gilbreath hit a two-run home run off Juan Bravo in the 1st, struck out in the 2nd, struck out in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Juan Gastelo in the 6th and hit a solo-shot off Corneles Manolas in the 8th.

In 101 games Gilbreath is hitting .295 this season with 89 hits, 20 home runs, 60 RBIs, 57 walks, .404 OBP and has scored 61 runs.
