Bombs Away: Mitchell Slams 4 Homers
Friday, March 21st , 2025
Alex Mitchell victimized Michigan State Spartans hurlers, smashing 4 home runs in a herculean effort that will go down in the Conference 1 record books.
In an epic hitting spree at Drayton McLane Baseball Stadium at John H. Kobs Field, the Virginia catcher went downtown again and again, leading the Cavaliers to a win, 15-10. He went 5-for-6, drove in 6 runs and scored 4 times in the historic game.
"The first ones just happened," he said later, discussing the game. "However, that last time, I was swinging for the fences -- and WHAM -- I nailed it."
Alex Mitchell singled in the 1st, hit a three-run home run off Travis Johnson in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Travis Johnson in the 5th, hit a solo-shot off Chris Welch in the 6th, flied out in the 8th and hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 9th.
In 9 games this season, Mitchell has batted at a .250 pace with 6 hits and 4 home runs.
