Ortega Rips 3 Homers Against Rockers
Monday, August 4th , 2025
Borrego Springs Rams bombardier Luis Ortega set his sights on the stands and blasted three balls over the fence as his club beat the Plymouth Rockers, 10-2.
"I guess you could say I was a good guesser today, especially on the last one," Ortega 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 Borrego Springs center fielder had 4 hits in 6 at-bats, drove in 6, and scored 3 runs.
Luis Ortega hit a solo-shot off Danny Garcia in the 1st, flied out in the 2nd, hit a two-run home run off Danny Garcia in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Jim Unknown in the 6th, flied out in the 7th and hit an RBI single in the 9th.
To date, Ortega has collected 182 hits for a .448 average. He has posted 30 home runs, scored 131 runs and driven in 78 runs.
