Scheffel Goes Long 3 Times
Sunday, June 27th , 2021
Bobby Scheffel went yard three times in a Buffalo Bellflowers victory over the Plymouth Rockers at Wegman's Field.
"I was in a groove," he said. "Every pitch they tossed up there looked like a grapefruit."
For the day, the Buffalo second baseman went 3-for-4 against Plymouth with 5 RBIs and 3 runs scored in a brilliant display of power hitting that led the Bellflowers to the 9-3 win.
"I tell you what. I'm shocked because I didn't think that last ball had enough to get out," he told BNN reporters in the clubhouse following the game. "I thought it was just going to be a long out."
Bobby Scheffel hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 5th and grounded out in the 7th.
This year, Scheffel is hitting .350 with 7 home runs and 16 RBIs in 15 games played. He also boasts an OBP of .435 with 6 walks and 9 runs scored.
