Fans seated in the bleacher section at Super Solarplex were taking cover all day long as Daniel Friedrich zeroed in on them, rattling three long blasts off the seats in a display of Herculean power.
The big game from the Whitby second baseman helped the Bats take the victory, 18-4, over the Moriarty Suns.
"I told myself not to press on the last one," he told reporters in the postgame press conference. "I knew I couldn't force it -- it has to be a nice easy swing."
For the game, he collected 4 hits in 4 at-bats, drove in 5 and scored 3 runs.
Daniel Friedrich hit a three-run home run off Vinny Alvarenga in the 1st, singled in the 3rd, hit a solo-shot off Chris Gibbons in the 5th and hit a solo-shot off Josue Muro in the 6th.
This year, Friedrich has collected a .239 batting average to date with 16 hits in 67 at-bats, 10 RBIs, 6 home runs and scored 9 times. He has played in 21 games.
