Sultan of Swing: Sanders Goes Deep 3 Times
Wednesday, May 19th , 2021
Whatever Jaylin Sanders ate for breakfast before his game against the Moncton Mounties, it gave him some impressive power.
The Buffalo center fielder smacked three balls up and out of the park at Wegman's Field. His home run barrage helped the Bellflowers defeat the Mounties, 8-2.
"When they throw it in your wheelhouse, you've got a shot at a homer," he told BNN reporters after the game. "I got three shots today and nailed them all."
On his 3-homer day, he went 3-for-5, scored 3 times, drove in 3 and put on a display that history will remember.
Jaylin Sanders hit a solo-shot off Mark Luby in the 1st, hit a solo-shot off Mark Luby in the 2nd, grounded out in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Marco Montes in the 6th and grounded out in the 8th.
So far this season, Sanders is batting .301 with 10 home runs, 15 RBIs and 29 runs scored. He has 44 hits in 146 at-bats, 22 walks and a .396 OBP. Sanders has played in 37 games.

Tuesday, May 18th , 2021
Matt McGovern of the Flight was unstoppable in his team's 13-8 victory over the Biloxi Jackpot at Impact Stadium. He battered them for 5 hits in 6 at-bats.
"Boy, I was on the mark today," said the San Bernardino center fielder after the game. "I could see the ball real well. It's a great feeling to do this. And besides, 5-for-6 won't hurt your batting average like 0-for-5 will."
Matt McGovern singled in the 1st, singled in the 2nd, singled in the 4th, grounded out in the 6th, singled in the 9th and tripled in the 12th.
For the season, McGovern is hitting .301, batted in 22 runs with 13 home runs and 33 runs scored.
