Sunday, August 7th , 2022
Picture Rocks Raptors bombardier Donovan Widmer set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the Corpus Christi Texans, 15-11.
"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Widmer told writers in the postgame press room. "I was ahead in the count, so I gambled that I'd get a certain pitch, and got all of it."
For the game, the Picture Rocks second baseman had 3 hits in 5 at-bats, drove in 5, and scored 4 runs.
Donovan Widmer hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 1st, grounded out in the 2nd, hit a solo-shot off Jim Unknown in the 3rd, flied out in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 7th and hit a sac fly in the 9th.
Looking at his stats this year, Widmer has compiled a .288 batting average, while hitting 12 home runs and driving in 31 runs. He has played in 59 games and scored 47 runs.
