Monster 3-HR Day for Austin Saturday, April 10th , 2021 It was a good day for the Pope High School Greyhounds and an exceptional one for John Austin. The 14-year-old right fielder sent three bombs out of the park to help the Greyhounds beat the Marcus High School Marauders, 8-0, at Jeff Rowland Baseball Complex. "When you're in the zone, the game really slows down," Austin said when asked about his performance later. "I couldn't even tell you what pitches were thrown. Today feels great, but it is a long season and tomorrow is another day." For the day, he scored 3 times, drove in 7 runs and smacked 3 hits in 5 at-bats. John Austin struck out in the 1st, hit a GRAND SLAM off Chance Jolley in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Matt Howell in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Sergio Tello in the 6th and grounded out in the 7th. This season, Austin is batting .317 with 4 home runs. |
