Friday, August 19th , 2022
Elijah Moody went on an explosive hitting spree against the Maine Pines at Hollywood Grounds, launching a trio of blasts to help the Hollywood Stars win, 5-3.
The third baseman finished 3-for-3 with 3 runs scored and 4 runs batted in.
"It was just one of those days," Moody said in a postgame interview. "I don't know how to explain it. I'm just putting a good swing on the ball."
Maine skipper Chris Ware said Moody 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."
Elijah Moody hit a solo-shot off Josh Flaten in the 2nd, walked in the 3rd, walked in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Lorenzo Andrade in the 8th and hit a two-run home run off Vinny Narvaez in the 10th.
